Culture
& History
The traditional culture of Ladakh evolved from Tibetan Buddhism. Evidence
of this can be found in the many, centuries old, monasteries that are found
in almost every village throughout Ladakh. A large population of monks provides
for the religious and spiritual needs of the people, and are the most respected
members of society.

mostly at Monasteries. Every summer in July, a large festival is held at the
Ladakhi home of the 14th Dalai Lama in celebration of his birthday. He sometimes

Wildlife
Ladakh's flora and fauna are more similar to those of Tibet than to
the main Himalaya and are a product of the dry climate, cold winters and short
growing season.

Travel Information
International travelers to the Indian Himalayas usually fly into the gateway
city of Delhi. The flights arrive around midnight, and the domestic flights
to Leh or other areas leave in the morning, so most travelers stay at least
one night in a Delhi hotel. If you are making your own arrangements in Delhi,
it is advisable to hire a taxi to your hotel at the prepaid taxi stand in the
arrival hall.
