If you love road trips to reach the destination and want to love to be a story teller ten this trip is only for you.
The adventurous road with vast and huge mountain range with barren land always attract people who love mother nature.
2. Spectacularly jagged, arid mountains enfold this magical Buddhist ex-kingdom.
Picture-perfect gompas (Tibetan Buddhist monasteries) dramatically crown rocky
outcrops amid whitewashed stupas and mani walls. Colourful fluttering prayer flags
share their spiritual messages metaphorically with the mountain breeze. Prayer wheels
spun clockwise release more merit-making mantras. Gompa interiors are colourfully
awash with the murals and statuary of countless bodhisattvas.
Though threatened by a rapidly increasing number of visitors, Ladakh has much to
teach the West regarding ecological awareness. Most Ladakhis are cash poor yet their
traditional mudbrick homesteads are large and virtually self-sufficient in fuel and dairy
products, organic vegetables, and barley used to make tsampa (roast barley flour)
and chhang (barley beer).
The walls of dramatic mountains that hem in Ladakh make for an unforgettable
landscape, but be aware that road access requires crossing tortuous high passes,
which close from around October to May (or longer when snows are heavy).
