This is the capital of northern Pakistan. It is a small town that stretches along the Gilgit River. It used to be the center of Buddhism. both from the time of Christ There is a large Buddha image carved on the cliff. It must be said to be a thousand years old . There are legends related to giants. There is a community area and a market that allows us to see the way of life of the people here. When I came inside, the market was like, wow, there were so many people. And on the way to this city We will see a very beautiful valley view and this is the city known as Gilgit, the capital of northern Pakistan. Good morning, and this is Good morning from Pakistan. I have to say that as of the day I recorded this video, this is day 8 of my Northern Pakistan trip. Now I'm in Hun Sa City. It is one of my top favorite cities on this trip because it is really very beautiful. Now today we will go to a city that they say is supposed to be like the capital of this region. The capital of all northern zones. It is a city called Gilgit. Some people might call this city a starting city. of ascending to the north Because some people may come by car. which when driving the car, it must Sit in the Gilgit row first. But we travel in the opposite direction. At the beginning of the trip, I took a plane and landed in Skardu. and then travel to the upper side first Then used the method of taking a car back down to Gilgit. And as soon as Gilgit is finished, we will go to Besham. When Becham is finished, we will return down to Islamabad. Which is the capital of Pakistan. Well, the plan will be alternating a little bit. But it's good. Now the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom in abundance all over the city . The weather is getting warmer. But it's still cold. Okay, now we're in the morning. We will eat at the hotel. Then we used the local tour service of Incredible Pakistan , which I paid for myself. We'll go soon. I will take you to see. What else will we find today? We woke up early to see cows. eat fallen leaves In front of our hotel, little cow , so sad. Okay, everyone, get in the car. You can leave today. Let's go. First of all. Let's stop by and take some photos here. This place is called Sumayar Valley. It is in the Nagar area. Which will be located at the point of the Hun Sa River. and the Nagar River meet. In this valley zone It is also home to many small villages. By the majority of people who live here It will be the native people called the Burucho people. which have been together for many centuries And it is a group of people who still have culture. And it's a way of life that coexists well with nature as well. Now we stop by the side of the road. And everyone will see that the cherry blossoms It's starting to bloom everywhere. It's so beautiful. It's not all bloomed yet. Do you see that bald tree? Bald means it hasn't bloomed yet. It's still in the form of pellets. Let's take a look at this one that's about to bloom. Did everyone see it? It's going to be pellets like this. Then it will slowly bloom out as the weather starts to get warmer. It will bloom according to its season. It will be a beautiful color. But this is probably a different type because this one is very pink. The white ones bloom first. Then it will bloom and fill the entire village and mountain. All in the northern region of Pakistan. Stop by another point. This is clearly a scene from a Korean movie. Kwenchana~ Kwenchana~ Hey, there's a dog here. I just met a dog . What do you think? Oh, this place is full of dogs. At first I didn't see any dogs since I came. Today I found them . Jiw, Jiw, Jiw are all here. Bite it, bite it, baby. Bite it. That one is that one. Bite it. Stretch and show off a bit. Why are there so many dogs here? Actually, there is a butcher shop nearby. Sometimes they give the meat to the dogs to eat. Well , they give it to the dogs. It doesn't mean giving meat. Butchers also give meat to dogs to eat. I was shocked when I listened to it for the first time. Said there was a butcher shop. There are a lot of meat shops. At first, I was a little shocked when I listened to it, but it wasn't. It means that there are a lot of butcher shops around here. Then he shared the meat with the dogs to eat. That's it. Now we have been sitting in the car for a while. We've arrived in another zone. He said that this area is the highest ski resort in Pakistan. The atmosphere will be completely different. As soon as you look at it, everyone will have the same feeling. It has a European feel like this. There's snow and big trees. They say that from the viewpoint you have to climb up on the roof. This is like a resort that is still being built. But it still looks like it's not finished yet. We came first again, everyone. Each point we went to was a good adventure. It's like a survey. Is it everything yet? Tourism here That is, the nature is very beautiful, but many places to visit seem like they are not yet perfect, like they are still in the development stage. But it's not completely complete yet. Well , in the future this will probably be grand. Interesting. Come to the middle where he's working. Woodwork . Oh, go up the stairs and look at the view. OK, this is being built. He took us into the room to see what it was like. Right here is the completed hotel. It will be a room with a view like this. As soon as I opened it, I saw a waterfall. Oh, I didn't see a waterfall. I saw a stream, I saw a mountain. Now I'm walking up and down. There's a view of the atmosphere right now. I'm meeting a fellow traveler. Pico , what do you want? What did you say just now? Pico is a goat with sloping legs. and have lived here for a long time What do you want? Please tell us. Okay, let 's go Pico. Your leg hurts? What have you done? Pico: Don't bother me, human. Go now. We understand that you're looking for mom, right? Who are you looking for? Who are you looking for? Who are you looking for? Mom . Oh, mom. And another point here. It's the Naltar Valley. It is a valley not far from the city of Gilgid. This point is a point that is known for its beauty. Natural things and snow. Arrive during the winter. This place will be the center of Pakistan's ski resorts. It is a place for skiing. And especially snowboarding And like in Pakistan, they have competitions. Something about skiing will also be organized here. It is also considered the Ski Federation Of Pakistan or the Ski Federation of Pakistan. It is like an agency that develops and promoting skiing in Pakistan. There is a resort upstairs, so if anyone wants to try changing the atmosphere. You can come play in Pakistan. OK, let me fix the news. This place is the 2nd highest place. There is another place higher than this in Pakistan. This one is not number 1, but it is considered beautiful. The atmosphere is, if you don't say Pakistani. I took pictures in vain, and no one responded to Pakistan. Look, everyone will have to answer, " Where is this feel, everyone? Europe, Japan, something like that?" That kind of feel. Okay, now we're in Gilgit city. The atmosphere was lively. It's noticeably warmer. Okay , then we'll put our things away first. And then I'll go eat. That's it . Okay, this is our room tonight. Oh, looks good. Here's a seat. There's a way out. We have a garden-style place to sit and admire the view. Next to the river, it's beautiful . This is where we ate our food. How about sitting and watching the Gilgit River flow ? Oh, the water is clear. I pretended to do this. It was really funny. I really liked it. Everywhere I chewed, there were vegetables. at all For the city of Gilgit It is a small city located in the northern part of Pakistan. It is the capital of Gilgit-Baltistan. This place is an autonomous region. It is the northernmost point of Pakistan. This area is famous. Regarding the natural scenery, it is very beautiful. If you come to Pakistan, you must come here at least once. Which according to history Before the coming of Islam In the area of Gilgit This is Baltistan. Is there a religion or belief? There's a lot of variety. Local people come first. As in the time before Christ. that has received Buddhism which has been influenced People came along the Silk Road. We can find stone carvings. about Buddhism throughout the region And like in the city of Gilgit. Traces can be seen along the cliff. that has been carved which is considered to be the center of Buddhism In those days, it could be said today. There are approximately 217,000 people living in Gilgit. The income of the people here comes from agriculture. And various kinds of fruits were also grown for use in trade. And there are also things like beans and rice. Including tourism. Which is an important factor. Because because of the fact that this city Located on the Karakoram route. It is a highway connecting Pakistan and China. It's full of nature, which makes every year there are tourists flocking here. which in the previous episode I have taken you to see the beauty of many cities in Gilgit-Baltistan. Arranged along the Karakorum route. All the way to the borders of Pakistan and China, right? And this time Let's look at the city of Gilgit. Let's go see. The city is known as the capital. of northern Pakistan. How beautiful is it and what does it have? Finally, I ventured out of the city a bit. And then we passed a very, very, very rough road . Yes , this is the Napura Archaeological Site , and there were children everywhere waving goodbye. Hello , my dear , my dear. And in the city of Gilgit. There is also a spot where traces of Buddhism appear, called Kargah Buddha. It is a carved Buddha image. On a cliff in the Kargah Valley The height is approximately 12-15. It was carved in the 7th century or around 1,400 years ago. It is assumed that it is Adopting culture from Tibet Because it is the characteristic of the Buddha image. that existed in Tibet during the 4th-5th centuries. There are legends about this place as well. It is said that a long time ago there used to be a female giant. live around here and causing various kinds of trouble to the villagers So the villagers went to ask for help from one monk. who come to make a pilgrimage to this area The monk therefore had the giant crucified. Leave it on this cliff. and created this sculpture To be like a monument For that event, sure enough. Do you see that? Carved on the mountain There are a lot of children around here. That is, if people want to worship nearby , they may go upstairs. But no, in fact, we can pay our respects right here. Because faith is in the heart Yes, fatigue is in the body. If you don't believe me, I'll pay homage to you and see. Faith is enough in the heart. Well, here there is a staircase that goes up to the nearest end. But it's sideways. I was confused that the stairs went to the side, so I would see the Buddha image from the side and not the Buddha image. That is, it is carved. But the point is, if you go up there You won't be able to see anything clearly. It's not an angle. If you take a photo It's better to take a photo here. And another way is to go up there. And if you take a picture up, you should be able to see clearly. Leaving only dust and smoke Gilgid teenager Gilgit youths are playing with their hair. Motocross motorcycle. Oh my gosh, he went all the way up to the top. And you can't drive slowly. You just have to be strong. The best is here. But I don't think there's a need to go to the top. because it can be seen from the side didn't see anything Let's take a look at this side. And what kind of apple house did you find? And teenagers sitting and playing chess? Hey, you can still see it from this angle. It's carved. Zoom in a little. I 'm sitting here thinking that I may have only come here once. I don't know if I won't come again or not. Anyway , I've come. I went up nearby and went to pay respect and ask for blessings. Why? 7th century. This is holiness. It must be number 1. Can you imagine? I think I've already arrived. I am not an ignorant person. But I pay homage everywhere. Wherever you go, I pay homage. Because we believe We have a belief in our hearts that You will support us easily. The rest is done by yourself. It's not that tiring. Hey , that's it. We 've arrived and shouted together, " Wilson" (Beautiful view) , but it's not beyond the abilities of Thai teenagers. I'm not a teenager anymore. This year I'm 39 , but wow , but up here the view is beautiful. Saw the whole city This is a fate you cannot avoid. The heavens have decreed that you must come up to this point. Tired , beautiful, beautiful. Go down . Let's take a photo first. This is nearby. This is nearby . It must be called being a thousand years old. You must regard this as one of the strength of faith. of Buddhism that occurred in that era Just like I said. This is Tibetan style. When monks travel from one place to another, they travel across mountains. Up the mountain, then over the mountain The height is approximately 4,000 meters. After that, travel down the mountain. This is the journey of monks to spread religion. If we look back in history This city was once dominated by Buddhism. during which he was possessed They would come up here and pray. They are extremely religious people. They will pray all the time. Holding a Buddha image and passing it around is an act of meditation. And you will understand when I take you to the Taxila Museum, this place belongs to the Gandhara civilization. Gandhara was around 2,300-2,700 years ago , so it belongs to the Gandhara civilization. But it's Tibetan style , so let's just say that they told us that this is Tibetian style , that is, Tibetan style. And as you can see, at that time, what was that style called? The monk who travels Go spread some kind of religion like this. He will travel up and down the mountain. After going down the mountain, it was between the resting places. will make an idol Leave things like this at various points. OK, everyone. Now we are in Gilgit city. We will come on the city tour. This is Barça, that is, it is the area that is called their market. Well, the atmosphere is like a city. There are many people living their lives. Because this is a big city. And then I'll walk towards the bridge as well. We come here. This is the market in Gilgit city. They are called Gilgit Barca here on both sides of the road. It will be full of local shops. It is like a zone that is a community area. Another one of Gilgit We can come take a walk and have fun . It's close to the market. There are things like Old Gilgit Bridge, which is an old bridge used to cross the Gilgit River. Which is really old , when I came across it, wow. Very scary Because it rocks back and forth, right? Plus, a lot of people use it. and from the market We can walk right through here. You will also be able to see natural views like this. And of course, You can really see the lifestyle of Gilgit people. This is a real city atmosphere. And everyone uses this type of motorcycle. It's like it's very popular. It's the most popular . When you come inside, The market is very crowded. They mostly sell fruit. What kind of beans do you sell? This one is Dumpling. It's dumplings. Okay, now we're on the bridge. The wire bridge looks strong, but the floor, I'm not too sure about it, but it's OK. Right now it is Old Bridge Gilgit City, meaning there will be people crossing it. And then there's the motorcycle that crosses. It's time to walk. The bridge is rocking like this. Can you imagine if you took a photo it wouldn't be so steady? But it is possible to see the view. Really with the whole city , Gilgit is one city where the mountains are clearly visible , and some people come up to sit here. They divide the youngsters into different pens. The goats and various goats will be in the pens together. How often do they renovate the bridge? But it's called Old Bridge. And here, the nuts have fallen off the bridge, some are broken, and the wood is starting to rot. Actually, I don't feel very safe, but But it has to be strong. Otherwise, how could they have lived together for so many years? But the bridge is tilted. The bridge is tilted and the walk is slipping. I'd rather be on this side. feel more comfortable Come back to Barca again. I'll go back to the van. This one takes you to see what's in the market. How do you live at the bridge in the city? There are a lot of people and there is street food. There was a lot of food to eat , children walking, adults, and motorbikes driving past everywhere. Okay, come and eat. The restaurant is called Paradise Grill. It looks good. It definitely looks good. This meal is barbecue style. There's chicken , there's kebabs , kebabs , kebabs , and there's fish and meat. They call it dry roasting. It doesn't get any drier than this. Look at the scorch. But the taste must be delicious. Think for yourself. Hmm . Crispy and spiral. Okay.

In case some people will come this way. And you know you have to take a long car ride, right? Let's see. Let's stop at a gas station first. We'll stop by the grocery store soon. to buy water first Because I've been here for a long time , I must be lonely . Okay, I've already bought it. I sat for a long time . At first, today it didn't seem cold. But it's still cold. The atmosphere around here is mountains right now. It's like fog everywhere. Go to the bathroom for a moment. Okay, we've reached the first point. This place is like a rest stop. and saw a mountain view I really like today. The mountain looks like it has clouds . I'll take a look. Does everyone see that? A mountain like It's like there are clouds coming to the island. What would it be like if you were at the top? It's like being in the middle of the clouds. It's big too. Complete the walkway. And this is the point where we come back again. This is The Three Mountains Junction View Point. It is the intersection point where three mountains meet, namely the Karakoram mountain range. Himalayas And then the Hindu Kush mountains. which can be called 3 great mountain ranges It's the best in the world. Like the Himalayas. It will be the location of Mount Everest. Which is the highest peak in the world. And then followed by Karakorum. It is the location of the K2 peak , which is the 2nd highest in the world. And finally, it is Hindukushana. which has the peak of Tirich Mir, which is as high as 7,708 meters above sea level. which can be called the highest mountain peak beyond the peak in the Karakorum mountain range and the Himalayas too Done. It is considered a good point. It's finished. Let's go to our car and take a long nap . Okay, now we are in a city called Chilas. Along the way, we stopped by.

Now we're in the city. It's Datsu. It's about 4 p.m. right now. It should take about 3 hours to reach. It's a city like that. There is a road in the middle and it is very congested. There were a lot of people next to the chicken vendors standing all over the place. This is a local style of clothing. Everyone sees it. Everyone is standing across from each other and shouting and shouting. Some people sit on the roof Why are you sitting on the roof? There are so many people . There are only big trucks like this, all over the road. Wow , there's a lot of traffic. Let's continue to sleep. It's probably like if I click Google Maps for 2 hours , but the condition I think the road is 3 hours . Well, stop and park on the side of the road. Another activity is It's not our activity. Our guide team must It's like when it's time to pray. He must stop to pray. I have just seen that he can pray at this place. He went to pray at a waterfall. That is, normally you have to wash your hands and finish washing anything first. And then he went to pray and he went straight to the waterfall. Wow, I thought, why did they park 5 minutes at the waterfall ? And this is the valley next to it , not even there yet. And there was a lonely house too. That house was lonely, but that one was more lonely. People may not see Who are you going to build there with? Right now I'm in Pattan village. You can see the village below and it's green because it's below. It's like they've already planted a crop. It's very beautiful . This is when we follow the steps. Coming down to the zone where the weather is warmer, we will see that the village in this zone is similar to the one we went up to where it is high, but it is green. And it's really green. Well, it will be a different color, beautiful . Let's continue, everyone. Let's continue. Now we have arrived in Besham. Our destination today is to sleep. I must say that right now it is raining heavily. But the luckiest thing is that it happened when We're about to reach the city. If it fell earlier I'm telling you, it's very scary. Because we were driving on the edge of a cliff the whole way . Can you imagine? It was the edge of a cliff that was like, wow , and then it was quite a gap and the road was narrow. But now it's OK. We've reached the city. I 'm relieved . We're here. This is the hotel for tonight. In the end, I came out from 8:00 a.m. until 6:30 a.m., exactly 10 and a half hours.
