Day 6

- Nubra Valley to Leh

- Overnight at Gangshuns guesthouse, Zangsti, Uppertukcha road

Scenery on the way back Nubra Valley to Leh

Mase balik jalan jam, kereta memang beratur panjang. So kitorang pon jalan kaki ke depan nak tgk ape jadi, rupanya lori terbalik. Jalan sempit, bila lori dah terbalik memang kereta lain tak dapat lalu. So kene la tunggu sampai derang tarik lori ni. Jalan kat sini memang bahaya, sempit n byk selekoh, gunung ganang plak tu. Bila ada salji runtuh, salji ye bukan tanah runtuh, memang bahaya. Driver ktorang tu ade bgtau baru2 ni kawan die yg driver jugak accident mase salji runtuh, semua meninggal. 

Lori terbalik

Salji dkt puncak, memang terik, dh dekat sgt dgn matahari

Sekali lagi lalu Khardungla Top

Petang sampai Leh, checked in Gangshun Guesthouse, just near Dorje Guesthouse. Dekat area Zangsti ni mmg byk guesthouse, sepanjang jln ade guesthouse,boleh pilih je mane yg suke. One of us suddenly terkena AMS yg agak teruk, bawa gi hospital, doctor check Oxygen dlm badan memang kurang n kena admitted to the hospital. Rupanya memang ramai tourist kena AMS, siap ada ward khas utk tourist. Silela tgk gambar ward kat bwah ni, agak scary, dengan gelapnya, n nurse agakla kasar jugak ku tgk. Huhuhu...

Special ward for tourist

Day 7

- One day trip to Pangong Tso Lake ( 3 idiots scene) ; 5-6 hours drive

- Innova taxi cost : 7700 rps

- Back to Leh, overnight at Gangshuns guesthouse

Since one of us couldn't join us, three of us continue the trip to Pangong Tso (3 idiots scene). The route to Pangong Tso crossed over Changla Pass, which also one of the highest altitude mountain pass. Pangong Tso is an endorheic lake situated at an altitude of 4350 m.

 Changla Pass, nampak je salji tapi die punye terik nk buka mata pon susah

After around 5 hours, we reached Pangong Tso. Quite a lot of people, mostly local Indian tourist. Pangong Lake become famous after the 3 idiots movie shot.

Day 9

- Arrived Srinagar in the morning

- Sightseeing around Srinagar ( Dal lake, Botanical garden, Pari Mahal )

- Overnight in Srinagar

Kitorang sampai Srinagar,Kashmir pagi, hotel walk in je. Mula2 tgk boat hotel atas Dal lake, sbb Srinagar mmg famous the boat hotel. Tapi lps dh tgk rasa macam tak sesuai je, macam payah je nak tido atas rumah bot. So ktorang pon checked in hotel atas darat depan Dal Lake. Srinagar sgt la panas terik, mmg sunburn teruk gak la, terbakar kulit.

Kashmir ni kalau yg cantik kawasan Sonamarg, Gulmarg & Pahalgam iaitu kawasan gunung dan sungai. Kitorang taksempat pergi. Srinagar ni bandar kashmir so kawasan bandar biasala serabut n busy skit.

Day 10

- Flight from Srinagar to Delhi

- Evening flight from Delhi to KL

Conclusion
Ak sgt puas hati dgn trip ni sbb dapat dtg ke tempat yg sgt cantik, betapa indahnya ciptaan Allah. Total cost 10 hari excluded flight tix kurang dari RM1.5k sebab ak tuka duit RM1.5k, tapi still ada balance. Disebabkan ak tk puas lg tgk kecantikan ladakh, bersambungla pulak 2nd trip ak ke India. Sile tgk next post ye...
