In this episode of #LostinLadakh we are in Turtuk village and headed to Tyakshi as well! These villages are really close to the border however not the last villages. The last village is Thang, where civilians couldn't go at the time that I visited. Turtuk is a truly beautiful place and I would recommend that you stay here for 2 nights atleast. This green pocket of Ladakh surprised us with its efficient water supply system originating from the glaciers to nourish the lush vegetation of an insane number of fruits and veggies in the valley. This village also supplies food to defence units stationed nearby. In this series, we have covered Leh, Stok, Karzok, Maan, Nubra Valley, Turtuk, and Kargil while traveling through Ladakh. Through this series get ready to experience Ladakh packed with adventure, hidden gems & unforgettable experiences like never before. 😊 Hit subscribe for more such videos and comment below to tell me if you're looking forward to get lost in Ladakh as well!
