Ladakh is one of the highest regions of the world.

The confluence of Indus and Zanskar: Driving a few hours from Leh, you will find the point where the mighty Indus and Zanskar converge to flow into Pakistan as the Indus. Every season has the river in different hues and colours. The rivers run a deep emerald green and a bright blue that are contrasted against the stark brown mountain valleys through which they flow.

Lakes of Tso Moriri and Pangong Tso: Visit Ladakh for spell binding views of surreal lakes at high altitudes.
April-June: From April, tourists start to migrate to Ladakh, as the cold fades and snow starts to melt gradually. The temperature during this time is still quite cold, around 5°C-7°C. By the second week of May, the very important Srinagar-Leh highway is made available again, thus opening the floodgate for the flurry of tourists to go to Ladakh.
September-October: Autumn in Ladakh is once again one of the best times to visit. Being washed by the rain over the monsoon season, the rugged surroundings turn to its freshest of colours. Moreover, the crowd from summer season thins out to quite an extent, which means Ladakh can be enjoyed bit more freely.
January to March: The famous Chadar Trek is on for adventure lovers at this time. One part of the trek involves walking over the frozen Zanskar River.
By Air: Leh Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport is the main airport of the area. This is the closest airport at Leh, which is all around associated with Delhi, Jammu, Srinagar, and a few different urban areas in India.
By Road: If you are travelling from Srinagar then you will be covering a distance of 434 kms route via Srinagar – Sonmarg – Zozi La – Drass – Kargil – Mulbek – Lamayaru – Saspol – Leh. If you are taking the route of Manali to Leh then you will be covering a distance of 490km, while enjoying the beautiful vistas of the region like, Manali – Rohtang – Gramphu – Kokhsar – Keylong – Jispa – Darcha – Zingzingbar – Baralacha La – Bharatpur – Sarchu – Gata Loops – Nakee La – Lachulung La – Pang – Tanglang La – Gya – Upshi – Karu – Leh
There are several Banks in the city of Leh now including SBI, PNB, Axis, HDFC and J&k Bank and they all have ATM facilities so it is almost impossible that you have difficulty getting cash in Leh like it happened in my case. However there are no ATMs in Nubra and towards Pangong and Tso Moriri so you will have to carry cash when you head towards these areas.
The peak summer months from mid-June to September have a pleasant temperature and therefore single T-shirts or shirts can do. In winters (from November to February), one needs to carry heavy woolen clothes and warm jackets. However, in most parts of the Leh- Ladakh region, there is a drastic fluctuation in the daily temperature. Therefore, tourists should carry woolen clothes and sweaters while packing their bags for the trip.
Many arts and crafts, handlooms and cloth materials which are handmade and high quality are available in Ladakh. You can buy variety of souvenirs from Leh. The stunning Ladakhi jewellery makes a gorgeous addition to your collection. You can also shop for the Pashmina Shawls and the traditional warm robe ‘goncha’, made with wool or cotton. You can also buy dried or freshly harvested apricots grown locally in Ladakh and its neighboring areas. You can also find organic apricot jam and oil while shopping in Leh Ladakh, to make the most of the luscious fruit!
