A little information about Ladakh:
Ladakh is a region of Jammu and Kashmir, the northernmost state of the Republic of India. It is the highest plateau of Kashmir, with much of it being over 3,000 m (9,800 ft) and spans the Himalayan and Karakoram mountain ranges and the upper Indus River valley. Ladakh is is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Kashmir, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent. Ladakh borders Tibet to the east, the Lahaul and Spiti to the south, the Vale of Kashmir, Jammu and Baltiyul regions to the west, and the trans–Kunlun territory of East Turkistan to the far north. Ladakh is renowned for its remote mountain beauty and culture. It is sometimes called "Little Tibet" as it has been strongly influenced by Tibetan culture.
