Ladakh Tours – Best Way to Enjoy Your Adventure Trip
In geological terms, Ladakh is a young land, formed only a few million years ago by the clasping and folding of the earth’s crust as the Indian sub-continent pushed with enticing force against the immovable mass of Asia. It is bounded by two of the world’s mightiest mountain ranges, the Great Himalaya and the Karakoram, it lies athwart two other, the Ladakh range and the Zanskar range. Ladakh is a land like no other. Age-old monasteries, quaint lanes, colorful markets and stunning views of the Himalayas make Leh an exotic destination. Ladakh lies at altitudes ranging from about 9,000 feet (2750m) at Kargil to 25,170 feet (7,672m) at Saser Kangri in the Karakoram. Thus summer temperatures rarely exceed about 27 degree celcius in the shade, while in winter they may plummet to minus 20 degree celcius even in Leh. Surprisingly, though, the thin air makes the heat of the sun even more intense than at lower altitudes; it is said that only in Ladakh can a man sitting in the sun with his feet in the shade suffer from sunstroke and frostbite at the same time! It is the perfect place for more adventurous and action-oriented people or those who would like to witness the whole new world of spiritualism and the innermost levels of devotion. A cold and dry desert land, the uneven, ragged, barren expanse of white snow-covered land invokes awe and adrenaline rush at the same time.

It is one of the most charismatic architectural ruins that attract the attention of the tourists almost immediately with its majestic setting at the edge of the Namgyal hill and overlooking the town.

Ladakhi monasteries or Gompas are typically built on solitary rocks or atop steep hills. They may belong to either the Mahayana or the Hinayana sect of Buddhism but all of them play a major role in the beauty, lifestyle and culture prevailing in the region.
