This has earned the village the name of "little England" due to most of its residents having dual citizenship in the UK. Originally, the residents moved aboard during the early 1960s to earn and send income back home. However, as time passed, many decided to stay abroad settling with dual citizenship and regularly travelling back and forth occasionally. The village is surrounded by the Cherat mountains range. Within the mountains range, just above the village, is a former British Hill station or cantonment that was used in 1861 and is currently being occupied by the Pakistani army. It mainly consists of a training ground for the Pakistani SSG. It is off limits to the public and hosts the world's largest zipline in South Asia which covers ranges of 1.6 km located at the Khattak mountain ranges. It is the only village in Pakistan with multiple banks. The name Saleh Khana derives from Arabic and means "Good Home" & it's well known for its famous slogan, "The Few, the Proud". (en) |
