Gilgit-BaltistanImambargahProtected
This Imam bargah lies at a corner of the Gomasergong settlement in Shigar town. It was constructed with a traditional cribbage and cator technique, using local materials such as timber, stone and clay. Built along a square plan, it houses a verandah on one side that opens toward the settlement, and it consists of two main halls, one for males and the other for females. Interestingly, its central column belonged to the old fort of Shigar (Balti: Singma Khar), and was donated to the Imam bargah by the Raja of Shigar.
