Ladakh is that sort of place. There are, after all, only 20,000 people in Leh, the capital, and not many more outside it. Phunchok Wangchuk, the uncle of the "queen" runs a cozy family hotel, the Shambha-La set in an apple orchard 1 km outside Leh.

Ladakh is a silent, blissful place of thin air and magical geological shapes, its landscape marked by soft, burned colors and purple shadows. Curiously, it boasts an intimacy that belies the rugged 4,000-m to 6,500-m peaks that surround the former kingdom. Even the mighty Indus River, which cuts across the high valleys and through the mountain gorges, can look almost like a stream when viewed from the hilltop monasteries. The brochures call Ladakh "Little Tibet". The two alpine regions are much the same, from the monasteries on the hills to the people's common features. But Ladakh is preferable in many ways. Tibet is much larger and can be so stiff and regimented. One feels at ease in Ladakh. The atmosphere is casual and friendly, and the people set their own pace.
