Today Ladakh consists of two districts — Leh and Kargil. The largest town in Ladakh is Leh. Ladakh, the region of mountain passes, a piece of broken moon land- a perfect place to witness the unmatched beauty of nature. Ladakh is the highest plateau of the Indian state of Kashmir with much of it being over 3,000m.
The major places to check out in the Kashmir region are Srinagar , Pahalgam, Gulmarg and Sonamarg. While Srinagar is a best stop over for a week, the other three also make nice hop over destinations for a day from the capital city.
