The isolated area of Ladakh first opened to tourists in 1974, and is the home to one of the last surviving authentic Tibetan Buddhist cultures. Leh is situated at a height of 3505 meters and once was part of the silk route of central Asia. Traders from exotic and far-flung lands have long spoken of the beauties of these lands. (Ami Vitale)
