Nubra Valley Tourism

Type of destination: Valley

Ideal visit duration: 2-3 days

Nubra Valley is a high-altitude desert area situated in the northernmost part of India, in the union territory of Ladakh. It is famously known as the 'Orchard of Ladakh' and offers stunning landscapes marked by sand dunes, monasteries, and a wide, expansive river valley. The Shyok River, a tributary of the Indus River, flows through the valley, shaping its arid terrain and creating fertile patches that are lush with vegetation. Nubra is accessed via the Khardung La pass, one of the highest motorable roads in the world. The valley is home to the Bactrian camel rides, especially in the Hunder region, which draws many tourists. Nubra's cultural heart lies in Diskit, where the Maitreya Buddha statue overlooks the valley and the Diskit Monastery is rooted in history and spirituality. The region's unique beauty, combined with its remote and untouched ambiance, has made it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking adventure or solace in the vastness of nature. The valley's history is intertwined with the silk route trade, and to this day, it retains a mystical quality that transports visitors to an era long past.
