History

Gufkral represents an important site in the area. Gufkral is located at Banmir village in Hurdumir area of Tral, five km (3.1 mi) from the sub-district headquarters. The area falls between two nallahs (streams) on an extensive deposit of Karewa (elevated tableland) where people used to live in ancient times.

According to historical accounts, Shah-e-Hamdan gifted a Lal-e-Badakshan (a ruby from Badakhshan) to Sultan Sikandar; in return, Sultan Sikandar granted Shah-e-Hamdan land on which to build khanqahs at Tral, Sopore, and Wachi.
