Overview
Ladakh is a high mountain land, consisting of many mountain peaks and ridges, twisted and bent by
forces deep within the earth. The three main river Valley- INDUS, ZANSKAR & NUBRA (SHYOOK) which
are so green in the time of summer yet so white and sterile in winter. The two beautiful Lake Pangong
Tso and Tsomo-riri also cut through this landscape of white or yellow, flashes of blue and green on
otherwise colorless canvas.
Ladakh is another world beyond the wilderness dream for the rest of the people who have not had a
chance to experience its wonderful and agonizing grandeur.
