The Gilgit-Baltistan Cultural Centre showcases the crafts, dress and cultural heritage of the diverse communities spread across the wider Gilgit-Baltistan region, from the Hunza and Nagar valleys to Baltistan further east. It offers a useful introduction to just how varied the region's local cultures are, something that can be easy to miss when travelling quickly between its scenic valleys. Exhibits typically cover textiles, jewellery and traditional household items specific to different local communities.
