Comments

  • Nice surrounding there.Good place for trekking.
  • Passu village is at the junction of several waters, that's why the Turks have called it as Passu. It is the heaven for trekkers and Batura Glacier is the third longest Glacier out of polar (North & South Poles). Many Western Expeditions have trekked to this beautiful valley/glacier. Passu has decent hotels for tourists and sufaris. But the whole area is scenic from April-October every year. The winters are severe and harsh to sustain a decent life.But the natives can survive and enjoy all four seasons.
  • Passu people are very hard worker and educator people . Its letruture ratio is 100%. Corruption is 0%
  • education is 100%
