Things to do in Ladakh<\/h2>\n

The Food & Culture of India\u2019s \u201cLittle Tibet\u201d<\/strong>
\nAptly nicknamed so, Ladakh\u2019s cuisine and culture has been majorly influenced by its neighbour, Tibet. Local staples include Thukpa & sky. For names that may sound alien, Ladhaki cuisine is on the contrary, mildly flavoured and will suit most tastes. Also, who can forget the oh-so-delicious \u201cMomos\u201d with its delicious fillings and spicy red sauce accompaniment?<\/p>\n

\"Ladakh<\/a>The rugged wildlife of Ladakh<\/strong><\/p>\n

A harsh area to live in, it\u2019s a wonder that wildlife seems to thrive here. Some of these rugged animals include the ever so popular snow leopard, the lynx, wild yaks, marcopolo sheep and the endangered chiru<\/em>. A wildlife tour can easily be arranged to witness these animals in their natural habitat and splendor, that too at a safe distance!<\/p>\n

\"Ladakh<\/a>Trekking-ahoy!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mountainous areas and trekking are almost synonymous. If you\u2019re up for an adventure, don\u2019t forget to sign up for a trek! They can last from a period of 5 days to even a fortnight depending on the trek route of your choice. So pack up on those woolly clothes for adventure!<\/p>\n

\"Trekking<\/a>Monasteries for some quality \u201cInner-peace\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ladakh is not only a region of beauty, but also spirituality. Just like its neighbours, Ladakh has Buddhist monasteries<\/a> scattered all over. A visit should definitely be on your checklist!<\/p>\n

\"Monasteries<\/a>Handicrafts for the relatives<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve made it all the way to Ladakh, don\u2019t forget to get some souvenirs for those back home. It is great place to pick up some traditional handicrafts. The Pashmina woollen shawls are extremely popular here. Other trinkets include prayer wheels, hand woven rugs and carpets. Stock up as much as you can!<\/p>\n

Now that you know what to look for, go get some woolly clothes and head over to this beautiful paradise.<\/p>\n
