“The Land of High Passes”
Leh Ladakh
About Leh Ladakh
Ladakh is India's crown jewel — a high-altitude desert plateau bordered by the Karakoram and Himalayan ranges. At 11,562 ft, Leh sits amidst some of the world's most dramatic landscapes. From the electric-blue Pangong Lake to the world's highest motorable road at Khardung La, from ancient Buddhist monasteries to vast sand dunes in Nubra — Ladakh is truly unlike anywhere on Earth.
