Monasteries of Ladakh



While some people are intrigued by the awe-inspiring desert mountainscape of Ladakh, there are some, who find a calling in the monasteries of Ladakh. The monasteries of Ladakh situated in several scenic pockets of the Himalayan hills, valleys and mountains have been beckoning the spirituality seekers since time immemorial with their monastic lifestyle. Ladakh beams with the radiance of not only the sun rising from behind the majectic snow peaks but also with the radiance of the golden Gompas and its enlightened monks and nuns. But then again, Ladakh monasteries are not just about spirituality. These buildings are repositories of several fascinating things of archaeological interest. Most of these gompas of Ladakh are years old and within their sacred walls they have preserved some of the ancient most Thangka art, artifacts and paintings. Therefore, most monasteries are open to the tourists to come and admire their collections of art and architecture and at the same time get a close view of their spiritual lifestyle. The popular monasteries to visit in Leh and Ladakh are Hemis gompa, shanti stupa, Namgyal Tsemo Gompa, Sankar Gompa, Lamayuru Monastery, Shey Monastery, Alchi Gompa, Likir Monastery, Spituk Monastery and Thiksey Monastery.

Spiritual Travel in Ladakh


If you are a traveller in search of spiritual bliss in the mountainous landscapes of Ladakh, remember its doesn’t mean meditating in the freezing cold anymore to awaken your inner self. With luxury seeping in easily and becoming almost synonymous with contemporary travel in the recent most times, reaching enlightenment in Ladakh too has become a joyful and a comfortable experience. With the growth of tourism, Ladakh is mushrooming with many beautiful and often, upscale accommodation facilities replete with modern day luxuries. These days, many old, traditional houses of Ladakh are being renovated to be turned into luxury cocoons to cater to the growing number tourists. So, meditation is no more hiking to the mountains, enduring the chilly breezes of the Himalayas and quietening the chatter of your mind in physically challenging solitude. With the Buddhist hymns and chants mixing in the air and flowing into the luxury of your cozy room from the nearby monasteries, spirituality comes way more easier and naturally to the seekers than ever before. Just let yourself loose, be receptive to the friendly spiritual air that Ladakh has always been known for, and you will be catapulted to a place of bliss, which will only rejuvenate and elevate you in mind, body and soul.
