Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

The cave entrance to what appears to represent a fissure cave lying almost at river level is situated opposite of Pasu (Passu) village and on the (left, eastern) bank of Hunza River. The cave entrance is visible from the -Pasu Inn- but can be reached only in summer during low water in summer (BROOKS 1993c: 3, 1994c: 14).
