Leh – the Land of Passes and the Roof of the World await you!
Leh, the capital of Ladakh is situated at a height of 3505 meters and is towards the eastern parts of Jammu and Kashmir. Spilling out of a side valley that narrows north towards eroded snow-capped peaks, the Ladakhi capital stretches out from the foot of a ruined Tibetan style palace – a maze of mud-brick and concrete wrapped on one side by a desert and on the other by a lush irrigated farmland. Leh is the hub of Tibeto-Buddhist Culture for ages. Its colourful Gompas have attracted the devout Buddhists from all over the globe. It is also a favourite hiking place and is known for some of the best hikes in the country.
Age-old monasteries, old-fashioned lanes, colourful markets and stunning views of the Himalayas make Leh an exotic destination. Explore a Gompa, go mountaineering in the Himalayas, camp on the Ladakh plateau where the earth seems nearer to the sky, trek on treacherous and breathtaking routes and see rare mountain goats ascend the slopes and cranes fly overhead, enjoy a game of polo in a high altitude field or watch an archery contest where local residents compete in a contest that remains unchanged by time. Mountaineering, white water rafting and wildlife tours are other adventurous attractions of Leh.
Towering mountains reaching up to a clear blue sky, the rhythmic chant of Buddhist monks in an ancient monastery, the rushing waters of an icy river surge down from a glacial height makes Leh a picturesque destination. Leh Ladakh India welcomes you to holidays in Ladakh. Tour a land that will amaze you with its stark beauty and delight you with the warmth of the Ladakhi people.
