Little Tibet
Ladakh is a visual feast of colourful prayer flags, elaborate murals, and red-robed monks amidst a backdrop of stunning Gompas (Tibetan Buddhist monasteries). The people of Ladakh, who share many cultural traits with Tibetans, are warm and welcoming. White water rafting and mountaineering at extreme altitudes are just two of the adventure activities that can be enjoyed in Ladakh.
It is divided into two districts: district Leh and district Kargil. The former district’s most well-known town is called “Leh,” and it draws many visitors thanks to the many stunning monasteries in the area, the nearby Shanti Stupa, the many cafes, and the Leh Bazaar, which together define the unique culture of the region.
