Ladākh Essentials

Ladakh’s landscape is defined by the high-altitude Karakoram and Himalayan ranges, featuring ancient Tibetan Buddhist monasteries and royal residences. This selection includes Thikse and Stakna monasteries, known for their Gelug and Drugpa heritage, alongside the 17th-century Shey and 19th-century Stok palaces. Geographical landmarks range from the 5,540-meter Karakoram Pass on the ancient Silk Road to the base camp of K2 and the Godwin Austen Glacier. These sites represent the region's spiritual history and its position as a gateway between Central and South Asia.
