An ancient attraction from Buddhist times near the city centre of Skardu. I usually go to this rock because it's close to my house. The sound of the water stream following near the rock will relax your mind.

Manthal Buddha Rock, a historical marvel dating back to the late 8th to 10th century, stands as a testament to the later phases of Buddhism in the Indus Valley. Carved into a large yellow rock, the Buddha relief serves as a profound representation of ancient Buddhist artistry.
During this period, Buddhism was deeply rooted in the region, and Manthal Buddha Rock emerged as a significant cultural and spiritual site. The intricate carvings depict a seated Buddha, radiating tranquility and wisdom. Surrounding the Buddha are various Bodhisattvas, embodying enlightened beings who choose to remain on Earth to guide others towards enlightenment.
A distinctive feature of this site is the inclusion of two standing Maitreyas, often regarded as future Buddhas. These representations symbolize hope and the belief in the continuity of Buddhist teachings across generations.
Manthal Buddha Rock serves as a visual chronicle of the profound influence of Buddhism in the Indus Valley during its later stages. The artistry displayed on this ancient canvas reflects not only religious devotion but also the skilled craftsmanship of the artists who meticulously carved these representations into the enduring rock. Visitors to this historical site are offered a glimpse into the rich spiritual and artistic heritage that flourished in the region centuries ago.
