Located in the Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir, Leh is known for its stunning scenic locales, Buddhist temples and pristine environment.

Barren mountains with brightly painted gompas (or monasteries), fluttering prayer flags, rocky ridges, tiny settlements and the Indus River add to the overall charm of the region.
