Leh, a Himalayan high-desert city, is the headquarters of the Leh region in northern India's Jammu and Kashmir state. Leh, which was formerly a commerce caravan stop, is today recognised for its Buddhist temples and neighbouring trekking regions. Ladakh is a region of India managed as a union territory that is part of the greater province of Kashmir.
The town is still dominated by the now-ruined Leh Palace, the former palace of Ladakh's royal family, built in the same style and at the same period as the Potala Palace. Leh is located at a height of 3524 metres (11,562 feet) and is connected to Srinagar in the southwest through National Highway 1D and Manali in the south by the Leh-Manali Highway.
History
For centuries, Leh was a key stopover on trade routes down the Indus Valley between Tibet and Kashmir, as well as between India and China. Salt, grain, pashm or cashmere wool, charas or cannabis resin from the Tarim Basin, indigo, silk thread, and Banaras brocade were the main items brought. In the history of Leh, the old seat of the Ladakhi monarchs was Leh.

Shanti Stupa is a white-domed Buddhist stupa on a mountaintop in Chanspa, Leh district, Ladakh, India. It was built in 1991 as part of the Peace Pagoda project by Japanese Buddhist Bhikshu Gyomyo Nakamura. The Buddha's relics, ensconced by the 14th Dalai Lama, are kept in the Shanti Stupa's base.
Leh Palace is a former royal palace in Ladakh, India, that overlooks the town of Leh. Sengge Namgyal built the palace in the year 1600. When Dogra troops acquired control of Ladakh in the mid-nineteenth century, the royal family was compelled to relocate to Stok Palace. It stands nine stories tall, with the upper floors housing the royal family and the lowest floors housing stables and storage facilities. Much of the palace has decayed, and just a few of the interior decorations have survived. Jewellery, jewels, ceremonial gowns, and crowns are all on display in the Palace Museum.
A hilltop near Shey, 15 km to the south of Leh, the Monastery of Shey, Gompa and Shey are buildings. Shey was once the summer capital of Ladakh. Thikse Gompa or Thiksey Monastery (also Tiksey, Thiksey, or Thiksay in Ladakhi) is a Tibetan Buddhist gompa (tibetan-style monastery) linked with the Gelug sect. It's on top of a hill near Thiksey, about 19 kilometres east of Leh. It is the largest gompa in central Ladakh, and it is notable for its similarity to Tibet's Potala Palace. It also has a distinct complex of structures for female renunciates, which has been the subject of major recent construction and renovation.
In Hemis, Ladakh, India, the Hemis Monastery is a Drukpa Lineage Himalayan Buddhist monastery (gompa). The monastery was re-established in 1672 by the Ladakhi ruler Sengge Namgyal, 45 kilometres from Leh. In early June, the annual Hemis festival honouring Padmasambhava takes place.
The Indian Army built the Hall of Fame as a memorial to the courageous Indian troops who gave their lives protecting the homeland throughout the Indo-Pak wars.Hemis Monastery is a Drukpa Lineage Himalayan Buddhist monastery (gompa) in Hemis, Ladakh, India.

Day 3

We'll begin our ride today and visit the other side of this region, beginning at Nubra Valley. Our journey will take us through the Khardungla Pass, which is one of the highest motorable passes in the world. Nubra Valley is where you'll have dinner and spend the night.
Nubra is a tri-armed valley in the north-east corner of Ladakh. Diskit, the headquarters of the namesake subdivision as well as the Nubra tehsil in Indian-administered Kashmir, lies roughly 150 kilometres north of Leh town, the capital of Ladakh. According to local academics, its original name was Ldumra (the valley of flowers). The Shyok River joins the Nubra or Siachan River to form a huge valley between the Ladakh and Karakoram Ranges. The Shyok River is an Indus River tributary.
The valley's average elevation is around 10,000 feet (3048 metres) above sea level. Traveling from Leh town across the Khardung La pass is the most usual route to reach this valley. To visit the Nubra Valley, foreign nationals must first get a Protected Area Permit. Indian citizens have been needed to get an Inner Line Permit to visit the valley from April 1, 2017. Khardung La is a mountain pass in the Indian union territory of Ladakh, located in the Leh district. The native pronunciation is "Khardung La" or "Khardung La," however the romanized spelling varies, as it does with other Ladakh names. The Shyok and Nubra valleys are accessible via the Ladakh Range pass, which is located north of Leh.
Day 4
Nubra Valley - Turtuk - Nubra Valley
Following breakfast, the team will embark on an exciting trip to Turtuk, one of the final settlements on the Indian border. Nubra Valley is where you'll have dinner and spend the night.
Turtuk is one of Ladakh's most northern settlements, located in the Nubra Tehsil of Ladakh's Leh district. It is located on the banks of the Shyok River, 205 kilometres from Leh, the district seat. It is the only Balti area under Indian administration and the seat of the eponymous community development block. It was in Pakistan's hands until 1971, when India took control of this strategically important territory.
Turtuk is located in the Baltistan Region of India and is one of four such villages in the country, the others being Tyakshi, Chalunkha, and Dhothang. Turtuk and its neighbouring villages speak Balti, Ladakhi, and Urdu, among other languages. At Dhothang, Turtuk is the final outpost of Indian-controlled Ladakh before bordering Pakistan-controlled Gilgit-Baltistan. Turtuk is one of the Siachen Glacier's entry points. Turtuk is well-known for its fruit, particularly apricots. The settlement is located in Chorbat, a region of the Shyok Valley that straddles the Line of Control between the Indian and Pakistani administrations of Kashmir.
