Leh- Nubra- Turtuk-Pangong - Leh
Ladakh is not just another Instagram destination in the mountains, it is a Himalayan wonderland where dreams come alive, where the mountains meet the horizon, and the Indus River dances to the tunes of a flourishing civilization! It is a cold desert with all the warmth we need in life. A trip to Ladakh starts with a flight ticket to Leh, with the window seat offering grand views of the snow-capped mountains and the journey that awaits us! On arriving at Leh, we will witness the beauty of the unique city nestled in the Himalayan mountains.
We ride across the city and visit the hall of fame, Shanti Stupa, Pathar Sahib Gurudwara, and magnetic hill to woo science! However, what tops the journey is a visit to the Turtuk village, which is one of the northmost villages of our country.
