Ladakh - A land that is arid, barren and harsh which is parched but bitterly cold for most of the year, where scorching sun gives sunburn, piled snow gives snow-bite and piercing wind gives aching throat and sneezing nose,dryness with static electrical sparks from the body all (even) at the same time.
Ladakh is a wonderland that inspires awe and delight at the same time; a land of mythical beauty; a land where vividly colored mountains and mighty snow-clad peaks are crisscrossed by gurgling streams originating from shimmering glaciers; a land which is chiseled to form the quasi-lunar landscape.
This scenic beauty is more seen on the way to Chumathang (famous for hot springs) approximately 135 kms away from Leh along the Indus river towards it's origin in China. |
