Sheila's Guide to Ladakh

Have you ever heard of Ladakh or know where it is located? Even India locals will answer, â€œNo,â€ when asked that question. Ladakh is situated in Northern India; a land of monasteries or "gompas" (as they are called here), surreal landscape, surrounded by the Zanskar range in the South, Ladakh range in the North and great Karakoram range in the Northwest. The Indus Valley civilization is one of the oldest in the world, dating back around 5,000 years. Centuries ago, trade caravans from Tibet, Kashmir and China passed through the Nubra Valley. Ladakh today is where in-the-know tourists come to hike, trek, take jeep excursions and sightsee because... Ladakh is downright cheap, exotic, and filled with friendly people who have kept their ancient customs. Let Travels With Sheila teach you how to Travel the World on a Budget, share exotic locations known only to locals, and most importantly, ease your fears about languages, currencies, personal safety and staying healthy. Follow her advice to avoid making mistakes she learned the hard way during four separate, in-depth visits. Few travelers know Ladakh better than Sheila. HEREâ€™S SOME OF THE INFORMATION YOUâ€™LL FIND INSIDE... - Important Tips for Traveling Into and Around Ladakh. - What to See and Do in Ladakh. - Trekking Information. - Learn About Important Festivals, and more....
