Mysterious dust -covered Leh sits in a fertile side valley of the
Indus, about 10 km from the river. Encircled by stark awe-inspiring
mountains with the cold desert beyond. It is the nearest experiences
of Tibet in India. Leh developed as a trading post and market, attracting
a wide variety of merchants from Yarkand \, Kashgar, Kashmir, Tibet
and North India. Tea, salt, household articles, wool and semi-precious
stones were all traded in the market. Buddhism traveled along the
Silk Road and the Kashmir and Ladakh feeder, which has also seen the
passage of soldiers, explorers and pilgrims, forerunners of the tourists
who today contribute most to the urban economy. Rest of the day at
leisure. Dinner and overnight at the hotel.

DAY : 03 LEH
Full day visiting Shey, Thiksey & Stok Palace. After breakfast,
proceed to Shey - it was the ancient capital of Ladakh and even after
Singge Namgyal built the more imposing palace at Leh, the kings continued
to regard Shey, as their real home. The importance which was attached
to Shey - the seat of Ladakh's heartland - is attested by the enormous
number of Chorten about the village, particularly around the palace
complex and barren plain to the north of the road. Thiksey - is one
of the largest and most impressive Gompas. There are several temples
in this Gompa containing images, stupas and exquisite wall paintings.
It also houses a two - storied statue of Buddha which has the main
prayer hall around its shoulder. proceed to Hemis - which is dedicated
to Padmasambhava, what a visitor can observes a series of scenes in
which the lamas, robed in gowns of rich, brightly coloured brocade
and sporting masks sometimes bizarrely hideous, parade in solemn dance
and mime around the huge flag pole in the center of the courtyard
to the plaintive melody of the Shawn. The moan of the eleven feet
horns, the boom of drums and the clash of Cymbals. Hemis was found
in the 1630's by Tsang-ras-pa under the royal patronage of Singe Namgyal,
Hemis is the largest and richest of the Ladakh Gompas. It nestles
into the mountain side a little way up a glen in the mountains of
Zanskar range overnight at hotel. Return back to Hotel for dinner
