Panorama of the Indus River, Ladakh, India

---

This is a breathtaking view of the Indus River, the backbone of Ladakh with towering mountain ranges on both sides. Ladakh, in the north of India bordering with Pakistan and China in the Kashmir region extending from the Himalayan to Kunlun ranges is a sharp contrast to the rest of India. Ladakh, with its high plains & deep valleys is a high-altitude desert with cold/dry climate, the highest plateau and the most sparsely populated region in India.
