A road trip to Kashmir & Ladakh starring Arvind, Kamil, Monta & Tom. Filmed over 9 days in August 2014 in Jammu-Kashmir region. We spent 48 hours driving, crossed 5 high mountain passes, drank litres of tea, tasted special flavours and even experienced a bit of high altitude sickness. Places visited: Srinagar, Sonmarg, Kargil, Drass Village, Lamayuru, Leh, Nubra Valley, Pangong Tso. Ladakh road trip is all about crossing the various la or the mountain passes. “La” means Passes and “Dhak” means many, so the word Ladakh literally means land of many passes. Passes are the natural doors to the other mountains and peaks that have been used for herd’s food or for new places to settle down, as well as for trading between Tibet and India. As they are located so high in the mountains, people built temples on these passes, hang the bells and prayer flags to avoid bad luck.
