Leh- The Land With Sheer Beauty and Majestic Mountains
Leh has quite a few amazing places to offer its tourists. In between sheer beauty and majestic mountains, gradually fused into an oasis of green fields, Leh is based on the banks of the river Indus, at a height of 11,000 feet. Leh airport is Ladakh's only link with the outside world for the seven months of the year.

Leh is the administrative, commercial and cultural capital of Ladakh with a population of 10,000 people, mainly Buddhist. A memorable sight of the Leh bazar is the group of women, traditionally attired, selling fruits, vegetables and household articles, spinning and knitting, and exchanging gentle banter between themselves and with passers-by.

The mosque, city palace, the bazar and the gompas, are all within walking distance. Rumbak and Markha offer exciting treks, while Stok Kangri is the best for a climb. Boating and river running too are possible on the Indus.
