Ladakh - The Land of High Passes
About
This is one Indian tourist destination that everyone dreams of visiting. Situated right in the heart of The Himalayas, cramped between China and Pakistan and the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh is a cold desert. One can describe this place as ‘nature’s marvel’ in its truest sense. The snow-clad high peaks, cold deserts, and massive glaciers define the topography of the region.
