Overview
The Nubra valley tour starts with crossing the Khardung La pass, the world’s highest motorable road at an altitude of 5,602 metres above sea level. Khardung La pass connects Leh to the Nubra valley and it is strategically important to the Indian military force to carry supplies to the soldiers posted at the Siachen glacier near the India-Pakistan border.
The Nubra valley itself lies at an altitude of 3,150 metres above sea level (it is lower than Leh). Diskit monastery is the largest gompa in the valley, it was built in the fifteenth century on the side of rocky hill. It offers a spectacular view on the valley. A gigantic 32-metre-tall statue of Maitreya Buddha is located a few hundred meters away from the monastery.
