Ladakh looks beautiful and I'd love to visit there one day. My sister took her honeymoon there; she said if she had to retire anywhere in the world, it would be here. :). How safe is the city in the evening? Love your channel, following from Bangalore.
Leh City is considered to be completely safe in the evening, even for solo travelers.
