Leh
Located at the crossroads between Tibet, Kashmir and Kashgar, Leh has the distinctive elegance of a city intimate with the wilderness. Framed by rivers, mountains and perfect sunset horizons, this city is a web of beauty and adventure. Man-made structures of gompas, stupas, statues and palaces characterise the regal aloofness of this place while mountain trails lead up to scenic views of rocky ridges, white-washed houses, and even a deserted palace.
