Walk around
Check out the cuisine
This region of Jammu and Kashmir has Kunlun mountain ranges to its North, the Himalayas to the south, Tibet to its East and the valley of Kashmir on its west. All this diversity reflects on the food as well. So if you’re someone who loves to experiment, do try the Ladakhi, Tibetan, Korean and Chinese cuisines here. The staples of Ladakh cuisine are Sku and Thupka, Pava and Khambir. Dry fruits are extensively used as well and the spices add an intoxicating aroma. Also try the original version of momos that are served with a spicy sauce.
