👉 Be Prepared for
Usually, tourists prefer visiting Ladakh with the onset of summer for a much pleasant and bearable weather. However, summer nights are still cold and chilly, so don’t forget to pack enough warm clothes and other necessary stuff. Ladakh is a pristine destination located on Himalayan ranges due to which its average temperature is always on the colder side.
When visiting public places like monasteries and temples, avoid wearing short and sheer clothes. Unlike other tourist destinations, people in Ladakh are little orthodox, so tourists are required to maintain their decency while they are in public places. Also, avoid showing public display of affection (PDA) here, as it is not considered appropriate.
