1 Leh Palace Perched on a hilltop, Leh Palace is one of the finest examples of medieval Tibetan architecture.
Made of stones, wood, mud and sand, the castle walls provide warmth in winter and create a serene atmosphere in summer.
The interiors are adorned with crowns, formal dresses, jewelery and artistic paintings, some as old as 450 years old and made from powdered colors derived from powdered stones and gems.
The murals carved on the walls depict the glory days of the past.
