Overview

Tucked into a rugged corner of Ladakh, the Zanskar region is a maze of razor-like ridges, deep valleys, turquoise rivers and soaring mountains. Hidden in this geological wonderland are monasteries clinging to cliffs above ghostly ravines. Zanskar is a land of festivals, where the sound of long horns and cymbals echoes around the valleys - the people dress in brilliant colours and don mediaeval masks of the deities that contrast with the barren landscapes. The high and wild Tibetan cultural region of Zanskar is remote and does not easily give up its secrets - fabulous scenery, mystical monasteries and colourful, hardy people. This guide explores the exquisite sites of the myriad monasteries and describes the sublime road journeys that give access to this extraordinary land of Zanskar.
