Gilgit, the capital of Gilgit-Baltistan, is an unmissable destination for its unique blend of Pakistani and Buddhist heritage. The stand-out attraction is the mighty Karakoram Highway, a breathtaking feat of engineering that winds through the Karakoram mountains. Travellers love the city's tranquil atmosphere, where they can explore ancient temples and mosques, and marvel at the stunning Naltar Valley. The best time to visit Gilgit is between May and September, when the weather is pleasant and the scenery is at its most stunning. For first-timers, a practical tip is to hire a local guide to navigate the city's maze-like streets and to assist with trekking and hiking expeditions into the surrounding mountains.
