Leh Ladakh Top Tips
Basking in the Leh hostel
While you reach your hostel late night and the next day you plan to do Leh local sight-seeing, a strong recommendation would be to take that day completely off and just rest and eat at your hostel (in my case it was raybo hostel). This would help you acclimatize and give some time to your body to prepare well for further rigorous travelling.

Must places to visit in Leh
Druk White Lotus School – The school became famous after Aamir Khan’s movie “Three Idiots”, also known as “Rancho school”. This should be your first place in Leh local sight-seeing, to know the story of the school narrated by the local and take pictures in front of the painted walls.

Thiksey Monastery – Oldest and famous monastery in Leh, be ready to walk up the hill at least for 3-4 km. There is a Maitreya temple build there in honor of the visit of the Dalai Lama, to be seen.
Hall of Fame – A museum run by the Indian Army, must see places in case you have missed out on Kargil memorial. Also, if you are reaching here on Independence or Republic day, don’t miss out on a march past in the evening.
Hall of Fame 
Shanti Stupa – A Buddhist white-domed stupa known for providing a beautiful view of the surrounding landscape. And a unique quality of this Stupa is, it’s built by both Japanese and Ladakh Buddhists.
