Karakoram Hwy, Sept 1986. Mother and child

Hundreds of people gathered from far and wide, at a small village for a wedding.

While the men were gathered outside, talking and eating, the women and younger kids were mostly indoors. The bride (not this young woman) was in this building, hidden away behind a red curtain. The women here were fussing over her, awaiting the ceremony. I didn't see where the cooking was being done, but it must have been busy there.
