INDIA
Bound by two of the world’s highest mountain ranges: Himalaya to the south and Karakoram to the north, Ladakh sits on the western edge of the Tibetan Plateau, at an average altitude of 10,000 feet. Ladakh has often been called “Little Tibet” because of its historical connection with Lhasa and its predominantly Tibetan Buddhist culture. The region’s capital, Leh, to which we fly to begin our tour of Ladakh, is at 11,400 feet above sea level, making it one of the highest cities in the world.
From exploring the vibrant bazaars and sights of “Old Delhi,” a flight offering scenic mountain views brings you to the Ladakhi capital of Leh, where you are plunged into vibrant market streets, which once were a transit point on the ancient silk route. Traveling among pilgrims, you will visit the most significant monasteries to admire their intricacies and to meditate—journeying through the Leh and Indus valleys and to Alchi—to gaze upon the mural wonderland of Alchi Gompa—then continuing on to the monasteries at Rizong and Lamayuru, delighting in the many picturesque stupas that punctuate the majestic landscape.
