It is a carved image of a large standing Buddha in the cliff-face in Karghah Nala. The carving, which is in a style also found in Baltistan, probably dates to the 7th century. Kargah Buddha is located at the junction of two rivulets or ravines, the Kargah and Shukogah, about 6 miles (9.7 km) west of the town of Gilgit.
