LADAKH - TURTUK

Description

Ladakh, often referred to as “The Land of High Passes,” is a traveler’s paradise nestled in the northernmost region of India. Known for its breathtaking landscapes, serene monasteries, and unique culture, Ladakh offers an experience unlike any other. With its towering snow-capped mountains, crystal-clear lakes like Pangong Tso, and the rugged beauty of Nubra Valley, Ladakh captivates adventurers and nature lovers alike.

One of the key reasons to visit Ladakh is its rich cultural heritage, influenced by Tibetan Buddhism. Monasteries like Hemis and Thiksey offer a glimpse into the peaceful spirituality of the region. For thrill-seekers, Ladakh provides a range of adventure activities such as trekking, river rafting, and biking through some of the world’s highest motorable roads, including Khardung La.
