Thandiani
Thandiani (literally meaning 'Very Cold') is a hill station in the Galyat area of Pakistan.
==History==
Thandiani was originally granted as a lease to some members of the Battye family,〔See 'Early Leases in the Hazara' in Major Wace's ''Full and Permanent Settlement Report of the Hazara District 1868-1874'', Annex 1. pub. 1874, pp.379-380〕 in British India, who were Christian missionaries and also found in civil and military service, and who produced scions such as Wigram Battye〔Of the Corps of Guides (British India)〕 and Quintin Battye;〔For a history of the members of this unique family, see Evelyn Desiree Battye, ''The Fighting Ten'', London: British Association for Cemeteries in South Asia publications, 1984. It is also worth noting here that one of the Battye brothers, who died in a military campaign in the Black Mountain (Kala Dhaka) area in 1888, Major Leigh Richmond Battye, is buried in the Old Christian Cemetery, Abbottabad〕 and the Battyes subsequently gifted the location to the church authorities, where a Sanatorium and various other facilities were set up during the British rule, mostly for the convenience of missionaries, Anglican church personnel and officers stationed at the neighbouring cantonment of Abbottabad. It also contained some private European houses, a camping ground, a small bazaar, and the small seasonal church of St Xavier in the Wilderness〔Under the overall jurisdiction and management of St. Luke's Church, Abbottabad〕 which were occupied only during the summer months.〔(Thandiani - Imperial Gazetteer of India, v. 23, p. 304 )〕
