The Journey that I Plan–Leh

Well there are many places in the world that I plan to visit. Not a big fan of big cities, though and love the mountains. With so much to see in various parts of the globe, this is one journey that I plan to take this year..Well sharing some great visuals of the place what we call as Leh – Ladakh.

Leh (Tibetan script: གླེ་; Wylie: Gle; Hindi: लेह), was the capital of the Himalayan kingdom of Ladakh, now the Leh District in the state ofJammu and Kashmir, India. Leh, with an area of 45,110 km2, is the second largest district in the country (after Kutch, Gujarat) in terms of area.[citation needed]

The town is still dominated by the now ruined Leh Palace, former mansion of the royal family of Ladakh, built in the same style and about the same time as the Potala Palace. Leh is at an altitude of 3524 metres (11,562 ft). National Highway 1D connects it to Srinagar in the northwest.

Now a great visual for view and enjoy the Hindi Song with it:-

Have a Happy Week!
