The snow-capped mountains on bright summer mornings part the dense clouds and soar into the sky. Beneath the sky like a world submerged, lies a lost kingdom. of Ladakh, the gateway to which was opened only in the last few decades. At an amazing altitude, Ladakh is s bridge between the earth and the sky!
Part fantasy, part reality, Ladakh, is where the forces of nature conspire to render a magical unrealistic landscape. A landscape of extremes; desert and blue waters; burning sun and freezing winds; glaciers and sand dunes.
Ladakh is totally isolated from the modern world. An authentic land, it is faithful to ancestral customs where life is characterized by intense spirituality. Even an Indian traveler will probably find no similarities in the land and people between the ones he leaves behind and those he meets in Ladakh. Rich traditions of Mahayana Buddhism still flourish in the purest form in this region.
Ladakh is on every traveler's bucket list. It was only in June 2019 I finally decided to visit Leh.
