  • Mountains, Monasteries & Monks
    MOUNTAINS, MONASTERIES & MONKS In a country of a billion and half and still counting, Ladakh is one of those rare places where people are few and far between. While high passes and spectacular mountains dominate the region, it is also a place that speaks of the thou- sands of years that travellers, craftsmen, religious dignitaries and nomads have come upon. A jewel in the crown of India, Ladakh not just amazes with its landscape and people, but also hides unique Wildlife. While many passes make up for what it is and what it means grammatically, yet experiencing a place like this is bound to leave every traveller breathless both spiritually and by altitude. While Buddhism is Central to this part of the world, and uniformity of barren high-altitude mountains are constant, yet subtle differences between landscapes, people, history and wildlife in niches can throw up many surprises. From High passes, to border villages, secretive wildlife, to ancient monasteries and ruins, this journey takes you not just into Ladakh and its remoteness but also into insights of how fragile it still is environmentally and geographically. Yet, every step and every drive add to experiences unmatched and in comparable. TRIP HIGHLIGHTS Take in glacial rivers, fruit orchards, Buddhist monasteries and festivals at your own pace Drive through some of the most stunning mountain passes of the Karakoram, Zanskar & Indus ranges Visit ancient monasteries, ruins and forts that speak of beliefs and lives of yesteryears Glimpse rare wildlife in the trans Himalayan region

JRF ICHR Abstract Ladakh is the Northern most division of Indian Union which falls in Jammu and Kashmir state. Generally the recorded history of Ladakh begins with the coming of Tibetans to Ladakh in the late 9th CE. This paper is an attempt to string together the Pre 9th political history and the post 9th political history of Ladakh till 12 th CE. For this purpose folk lore and oral traditions have been employed as well in order to logically fill the lacunae in the pre 9th CE history of Ladakh. This paper also provides a geographical glimpse of Ladakh. Keywords : Ladakh, Geographical, Political, Chronicle, Tibet, Ladakhi Kingdom. Introduction Ladakh is known by various names like Mar-yul 1 (The Red land), La-tags 2, Land of Lamas and the Moon city 3etc. In fact Ladakh has been named by many people on the basis of their first glimpse of the land. The `multinomial nature of Ladakh depicts its versatility in the geo-ethnic milieu of the world itself. Speaking in terms of geography, Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir state can be divided into seven parts, lower (Sham ), Upper (tod ), Central (Zhang ), Nubra, Chang-thang, Purig and Zanskar. But in typical geographical terms the whole region can be divided into three major sub geographical regions.
