Kashmir & Ladakh are two beautiful places in the top most regions of northern India contrary in the beauty and landscape. The Kashmir is peaceful and green adorned by apple orchards, huge valleys, fresh water lakes, streams filled with fishes, verdant forests and amazing natural beauty can be seen everywhere. On the other hand Ladakh is a barren land dry and infertile. The impression a traveler gets of Ladakh on first visit is a vivid picture of people in unique colorful costumes and headgear, small scattered houses here and there on the green patches of land. The inaccessible mahogany colored massive massifs of mountain peaks standing against the mottled sky, old ancient monasteries which have withstood the brutal winters and belligerent climate today stand as a beacon of knowledge & wisdom.
