Hemis

Breathtaking sights, magnificent landscapes, and the Hemis region, world-famous for its ancient Hemis monasteries, attract visitors from all over the world. Hemis is a small and beautiful village in the Leh district of Jammu and Kashmir, commonly known as "Hamis". The largest and richest monastery of all the monasteries in the Ladakh region is located near the Indus River, 45 km from Leh. The magnificent sight of the Hemis Monastery time slips into its architecture and meditative atmosphere, providing captivating and bizarre healing in the shape of a tiger's nose. Located on a hill on the banks of the Indus River, the beautiful Stakna Monastery is located 25 km from Stakna in the Leh district. Surrounded by the rugged Himalayan landscape, the quiet Shangonpa is a refreshing sight. 39 km from the city center, the monks' chanting, the fresh and cool air of the mountains, and the splendor of the monastery calm your senses.
