Nubra Valley has been described as a little piece of heaven nestled in the harsh landscape of Ladakh. We had to cross Khardung La Pass,(more on that later) the highest motorable road in Ladakh region to reach the quiet valley of Nubra filled with lush Poplar trees, grazing yaks and traditional Ladakhi houses.
We chose a guesthouse called Snow Leopard, Hunder which could easily pass of as any traditional Ladakhi house with narrow gurgling streams, freshly sowed radish patches and apple trees...
The slow pace of life, the subtle fragrance of apple blossoms, the chirping sparrows, that hopping fat red-breasted robin and sipping hot masala chai in the company of interesting people, puts things back in perspective on life.
I believe that travel is an extremely important part of one's life and everyone needs to undertake a journey for themselves.

Beautiful pictures Archana. Totally agree with you on travel! Ashwin and I have decided to travel a lot and see as many places as we can.
Beautiful pictures as ever. Looking at all these pics I wish I could travel as much as you do....but surely some day. Keep going & keep sharing. Thank you.
So peaceful....so restful....
So true...traveling opens up the mind. Looks like a really nice place to stay...quaint and homely.
