Passu is a small village on the Karakoram Highway, beside the Hunza River, some 15 kilometers from Gulmit, the Tehsil headquarters of Gojal in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, and about 150 km upriver from Gilgit. It lies very near the tongue of the Passu Glacier, and just south of the tongue of the Batura Glacier. The latter is the fifth longest non-polar glacier in the world at 56 km, and reaches very near to the highway. The people are Wakhi and speak the Wakhi Language. Religiously they are Ismaili, a sect of Shia Islam. Tupopdan, , also known as "Passu Cones" or "Passu Cathedral", lies to the north of the village; it is the most photographed peak of the region. Also nearby are the high peaks of Pasu Sar, Shispare Sar, and Batura. == Gallery == image:Passu Cones.JPG|Passu Cones image:Sart pick.JPG|Passu image:Passu cones2.JPG|Passu image:Peri Goz.JPG|Peri Goz image:Passu Glacier.JPG| Passu Glacier image:Bridge near passu.JPG|Bridge image:Village in Passu.JPG|village image:Shit side in passu.JPG| image:Nabod area of Passu.JPG|Nabod area of Passu image:Sart pick in passu.JPG| image:Passu cones3.JPG| 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Passu」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
