Nestled among the two of the world`s mightiest mountain ranges-- the Great Himalayas and the Karakoram-- Ladakh is Shangrilla on the earth. Lying at an altitude ranging from about 9,000 to 25,000 feet, the cold desert of Ladakh is undoubtedly a great summer getaway one can have.

At the western edge of the Tibetan plateau, Ladakh is located at the `Crossroads of High Asia` that served as an important link in trade with Central Asia and was exposed to the cultures of its neighbouring regions. Over centuries it has evolved into a unique composite culture. The blend of its landscape, culture, tradition, environment and adventure tourism makes it an ecstatic holiday destination.
