we have made in the Ladakh-week so many amazing trips - and get us today have no idea how nice it was there!
Our driver, Dorje, collected us after breakfast (eggs of all species of mint and apricot with adhesive or masala tea), 3 Day, and we have gone off ... to Stok, Shey and Thikse. Fantastic. But the journey through the bizarre lunar landscape was cool - we jammed as always to 7t in the small van and were partially geschippert about interesting gravel roads ... mountains and down through the hills ... from the Indus.
Stok was beautiful - the old royal palace, in which the gems behind glass display cases are simple and the beautiful old Thankas and clothes rummodern simply must, because the coal is simply not an appropriate issue for protection ... where did it almost hurt already, to see that. Long will not be there.
The palace itself is beautiful, the view from up there ... fantastic ... we thought we knew nothing of Thikse ...
There was next out (Micah moaned again, because more than one goal a day makes grillighält ... and when we had to push it further, gabs Gemotze ... but that's so worth it) ... Thikse. ... situated on a picturesque mountain ... the little car struggled up to the gate, you walk through and it is greeted by chants and muttering mantra, which is transmitted via loudspeaker throughout the monastery. In between, always quiet and a view into a breathtaking landscape. We are back.
floating through the area, stairs up and down to see the impressive Buddha statue in amazement, and wander through the beautiful monastery. Few visitors are there, chatting with monks serving snacks. It is pleasant and peaceful. And windy.
Everywhere flowers, paintings and prayer flags. The interiors are beautiful.
And always an exhilarating view of the mountains of the Himalayas.
We photographed as the pierced and could not stop us ... too good wars. Only later did we realize that it was sheer-shoot photos was not really there. Probably you have to back once to "leerzuknipsen" and then again later when you have all been photographed and forced nachlässt.Dann you have time and can just sit and wonder.
From Thikse we went to after sunset ... Shey Gompa, a royal palace with it. Was all boarded up and, because we were a little late and wasted, but only outside the Rumstreifen was beautiful. But again, it was all uphill ... Of the valley had a magnificent view of Thikse and the shadows of the clouds which appeared in the Indus valley fantastically beautiful evening light. 
The bright chalk white stupa of hidden so much that there failed my photo skills. The card was already full - so I had suddenly a little time. And because everything was barricaded, a silence reigned in the place - only the wind whistling around the ears for us murderous strubbelte properly by the hair again - so much so that a sudden the advantage of a monk's bald head became clear.
