Dha & Hanu -
The land of Aryans
Dhahanu is
situated to the south west of Leh, around 163 Kms. passing through
the beautiful villages of Kaltsey, Domkhar, Skurbuchan and
Achinathang. There are many small villages but only two villages
of Dha and Hanu are open for tourist. Being on lower altitude
Dhahanu is warmer than Leh
.
The main
attraction of Dhahanu region is the Drokpa Community considered to
being as last race of Aryans confined in the valley. The feature
of villagers are considered as pure Indo Aryan and said to have
preserved their racial purity down the Centuries. Their culture
and religious practices are very similar to ancient pre- Buddhist
religion known as Bon-Chos. A tour of this region can be done from
Leh in two days with overnight in a tent.
Tsomoriri Lake
The Tsomoriri
Lake is a beautiful mountain bounded expanse of water, around 240
Kms. from Leh in Rupshu Valley. The Lake is located at 14,000 ft.
near and on its banks is a small village, Karzok. The Karzok
Monastery of 19th century houses Shakyamuni Buddha and other
statues. The Nomadic people are most outstanding feature of this
lake area, who graze herd of goats and yaks. Tsokhar (the salt
Lake) around 76 kms from Tsomoriri is also a beautiful lake in
this area. Both of these lakes can be visited from Leh in 2 – 3
days or while traveling from Manali to Leh or vice versa. This
area is also famous among trekkers, with the most famous trek
being from Spiti valley to Tsomoriri Lake over Parang La.
Pangong Lake
Pangong is 40
miles in length and nearly 2-4 miles in width, located at a height
of 4267 m. The first view of the lake is breathtaking because of
striking colours of its water specially towards evening, when it
is deep blue. A tour to the lake can be organized as a day
excursion from Leh or with an overnight stay at Tangste. Travelers
are not allowed beyond Spangmik and to pitch tents near lake for
an overnight stay.
