Ladakh is one of the most awesome places on the planet ("awesome" in its original sense). This semi-autonomous kingdom is India's most remote and least populated region, a mixture of snow-capped peaks, green valleys, glassy lakes and Buddhist monasteries.
Leh-Ladakh is a mountainous region in North-West India totally isolated from the modern world. An authentic land, it is faithful to ancestral customs where life is characterized by intense spirituality. Rich traditions of Mahayana Buddhism still flourish in the purest form in this region, which has often been referred to as Little Tibet.
