Khojak Tunnel


The Khojak Tunnel, also known as Shela Bagh Tunnel, is a railway tunnel in the Toba Achakzai range in the Qilla Abdullah District of Balochistan province, Pakistan. It is located above sea level. The tunnel was constructed in 1891 under the Khojak Pass and remains one of the longest tunnels in South Asia, and the longest in Pakistan. It is expected to be surpassed in length by the Lowari Tunnel, currently under construction, in 2017. The tunnel was featured on the old Five Rupee banknote.
