Ladakh, Jammu and Kashmir

Best for an extraordinary taste of Tibet

To the far northwest of India, beyond the main Himalayan range, lies
the former kingdom of Ladakh, culturally and geographically closer to
western Tibet than anywhere in India. Here you’ll find a high-altitude
moonscape of towering Tibetan monasteries (don’t miss fabulous
Hemis and Thikse), excellent homestay trekking, colorful monastic
masked dance festivals and horizon-spanning, high-altitude turquoise
salt lakes. These days, it’s the closest independent travelers can
come to actually setting foot in Tibet.

But there’s more to the former Mughal capital than the Taj. Add on a
couple of days and visit the architecturally stunning tomb of Emperor
Akbar, his rose-red sandstone former capital at Fatehpur Sikri and the
sprawling Agra Fort, one of India’s most epic.
