Leh Ladakh

| Introduction

Leh, the capital of the Ladakh region and the second largest city in Jammu & Kashmir, is often referred to as ‘Little Tibet’ because of its similarities with the Tibetan plateau. The place has some great natural and man-made attractions that have made it one of the most favorite tourist destinations in India. Some of the best Leh Ladakh tour packages promise to take you through Leh as well as a number of picturesque villages, monasteries and gompas that are scattered around the town, offering you an up close and personal encounter with the locals who live here and love their culture dearly.

| Why should you visit Leh-Ladakh?

Ladakh is a remote and rugged region of the Indian Himalayas. The landscape ranges from the fertile Indus River valley in the east to some of the highest peaks in India and to the glaciers, lakes, gorges, and high-altitude deserts in the west. It is inhabited mainly by people of Indo-European ancestry called Ladakhi people, an ancient Buddhist culture that follows a matrilineal system where women inherit family property and pass it on to their daughters.

The area is known for its highly diverse topography with many mountains over 23,000 feet high (7000 m), which attracts mountain climbers from all parts of world. For travelers, Leh is a gateway to the eastern Himalayan region. With its variety of landscapes, from snow-capped peaks and lush meadows to barren hills and deserts, it has something for everyone. The most popular destination in Ladakh is the capital city of Leh. With its labyrinth of medieval alleyways and bazaars, this small town is a wonderful place to spend time exploring the sights, smells, and tastes of India’s far north-eastern border.

| How to reach Leh Ladakh?

By Flight-

There are no direct flights from India to Leh, so you will need to fly to Delhi and then take a flight on Alliance Air to Leh. Alternatively, you can fly into Kathmandu and take a bus or taxi up the mountain.

By Road-

Leh is connected to the rest of India by road. The drive from Delhi takes about 24 hours and costs around Rs. 6000. Tickets can be bought at the bus station or online. There are a number of different bus companies operating on this route, so it’s worth shopping around for a good deal. If you are traveling in winter (from November to March) you’ll need a four-wheel drive vehicle, otherwise, an ordinary car will suffice. If you don’t want to make such an arduous journey, there are flights available with several airlines departing from Delhi and arriving at the nearby airport in Leh.

By Train-

The quickest and cheapest way to reach Leh Ladakh is by train. The closest railway station to the region is Kargil, with a distance of about 240 km from Leh. However, travelling by train takes 4-5 days, which means you will have to spend at least one night in the Kargil station. There are also buses that run from Srinagar or Jammu to Leh on a daily basis, taking around 10 hours.

| Tips for people who are going to travel to Ladakh

-The most important thing to do before you go is to research the culture and religion of the area. This will make your experience more meaningful and enriching.
-Take time to visit Pangong Lake, which is one of the most spectacular lakes in Asia.
-Be aware that there might be cultural differences when it comes to hygiene.
– Be aware of the weather. It can vary greatly depending on where you are. – Pack appropriate clothing for all weather conditions. – Carry an umbrella or raincoat at all times while visiting.
– Wear comfortable shoes as there is a lot of walking.
-Make sure you pack snacks if you’re traveling on public transport, as there are very few places to buy food throughout the state.
-You should also carry a hand sanitizer or alcohol wipes so that you can clean your hands often when out and about (or before eating). Some locals do not have access to running water so it’s important that visitors practice good hygiene habits too!

| What is the Best Time to visit Leh-Ladakh?

The best time to visit Leh-Ladakh is during the summer months. The temperature ranges between 15°C and 25°C in the day, and 5°C to 10°C at night. In winter, it can get as cold as -20°C and in summer it can get up to 50°C.

The natural beauty is unparalleled, with mountains and snow-capped peaks surrounding you as you walk through small villages.
