Leh

About Leh

Leh, the joint capital of Ladakh, is a high-altitude desert town nestled in a valley of the mighty Himalayas. It serves as the primary base for exploring the stunning landscapes and rich Tibetan-Buddhist culture of the region. The town is dominated by the majestic Leh Palace, a former royal palace built in the 17th century, which offers panoramic views of the Stok mountain range. The Shanti Stupa, a white-domed stupa on a hilltop, is another major landmark. The old town, with its narrow lanes and traditional mud-brick houses, provides a glimpse into the region's heritage.
