Pangong to Leh (With Sightseeing of Shey, Thiksey & Hemis Monasteries)

Pangong Tso - After breakfast and checking out from the hotel, prepare for a full-day sightseeing tour of Shey Palace, Thiksey, and Hemis Monasteries with a personal driver.

Shey Monastery - Shey Monastery or Gompa and the Shey Palace complex are structures located on a hillock in Shey, 15 kilometers (9.3 mi) south of Leh in Ladakh. The name Shey translates to “mirror” in Ladakhi, symbolizing the reflection of the palace. Shey is strategically located, overlooking the entire heartland of Ladakh.

Thiksey Monastery - Thiksey Monastery or Thiksey Gompa is a Buddhist monastery affiliated with the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. It is situated on a hill in Thiksey, approximately 19 kilometers (12 mi) east of Leh, in the Ladakh region of North India. The monastery is located at an altitude of 3,600 meters (11,800 ft) in the Indus Valley. It is a twelve-story complex housing many items of Buddhist art such as stupas and statues.

Hemis Monastery - Hemis Monastery is a Himalayan Buddhist monastery (gompa) of the Drukpa Lineage, located in Hemis on the bank of the Indus River, Ladakh, India. Situated 45 km from Leh, it was re-established in 1672 by the Ladakhi king Sengge Namgyal. The annual Hemis festival honoring Padmasambhava is held there in early June.

Hemis village is located 40 km southeast of Leh on the Leh-Manali Highway and the under-construction Bhanupli–Leh line. In 1894, Russian journalist Nicolas Notovitch claimed Hemis as the origin of an otherwise unknown gospel, the Life of Saint Issa, Best of the Sons of Men, in which Jesus is said to have traveled to India during his ‘lost years’. According to Notovitch, the work had been preserved in the Hemis library and was shown to him by the monks there while he was recovering from a broken leg, and his Sherpa guide translated it for him.

Leh - After visiting these monasteries, the personal driver will return you to the hotel.
