The Kargah BuddhaFew...
The Kargah BuddhaFew kilometres west of Gilgit, the standing Buddha carved on a cliff face. You can hike to the village of Kargah Nala, or hire a “Suzuki” for a few hours trip. Then local kids will guide you to see the Buddha and the ruins of a monastery and a stupa. The stupa is not very “interesting” (just lots of stones … if it was “the stupa”…) , but, again, good valley views, villages and people.

 This report makes me very optimistic as I am hopefully doing an expedition next year to this area... and as a woman, well I was concerned about the "customs".... not anymore :)

 Interesting, probably somewhere I will never go, but through u and vt I now have some idea of the country.
