Ladakh is an ancient land where the bare mountains stand testimony to its timelessness and energy.  The intense blue of the Indus river transports you through a region where many cultures interact and meet. In the extreme north encounter nomads living in yak hair tents and stories of the legendary snow leopard that still roams these heights.  As you descend past fields of iridescent green barley set against bare rock, gaze upon centuries old frescoes that show the convergence of many Central Asian and Indian cultures.  Hear the rhythmic turns of a prayer wheel or the rustle of old brocade as a monk pirouettes around the monastic courtyard banishing all evil from this world.  In the streets of Leh encounter the fragrance of freshly baked bread from the wood stoked ovens of Balti bakers, descendants of former traders who walked the Southern part of the Silk Route or hear the call to prayer from the local mosque.  Acquire jewellery set with old coral and turquoise stones or carpets reminiscent of a bustling trade that once took place on the streets of Leh bazaar.  Discover Ladakh, its many faces, voices and images.
