Cities Gilgit-Baltistan Gilgit We do not come to Gilgit for the charm of the city, but because it is an important stopover on the Silk Road (Karakoram), and a starting point for trekking, skiing or mountaineering programs, because it has a small airport open all year round. It is a city which brings together several villages and appear as districts of the city. One of the interesting sites is the Buddha carved into the mountain to the west of the city, the Kargah Buddha, Yshani
