Hello namaste to all hive users who reach my post today.how are you all.i hope you all are healthy and enjoying your life with your loved ones.
Leh Ladakh is the top of India. After which Himalaya starts.If you go to Leh Ladakh, you will get to see many Buddhist monasteries there.And mostly Buddhist people live here.The culture here is completely different.There is an atmosphere of peace here. If you go here, your self will be completely calm.Because the environment here is very good for the people of Buddhist culture to live here.In the morning and evening here Buddhist people do mantra chatting which you will find in monasteries at many places.And chanting his mantra creates a different atmosphere.And you will see all Buddhist monks alike because these people clean shave their hair and wear maroon colored clothes.
Today I want to tell you some moments of my visit to Ladakh which I spent at Shanti Stupa, a small place in leh Ladakh.
So this is the market view of Shanti Stupa which I clicked from upper side .where we reached first. And after that we stayed here for a while and ate some local food.We stopped here also because we were very tired after traveling.We started the journey from Leh Ladakh to Shanti Stupa at 7 in the morning and its distance was 4k but due to off road it took us 1 hour.
The market looks something like this from below.It is cold weather so all the people are wearing warm clothes.We had also taken all our warm clothes with us.
After that we went to Shanti Stupa, which is a monastery, and first of all reached this monastery which was near the market.I found this Monastery a bit unique.I saw such a beautiful monastery for the first time in my life.Its color was white .And golden and green color designs were made in it which is budhism religion.There was not much crowd because it was early morning.Some foreigners were also seen who were enjoying a lot.A statue of Buddha was also built on its upper side in middle.We stayed here for a while and roamed around. After that we went to another place.
You can guess by looking at how old this monastery would be.And completely made of stone rock, it looked as if nature had made this .Its doors and windows were also very old.Small windows are also made. And going inside it has small rooms where people do meditation.Photography was not allowed inside.But the temperature inside was a bit hot.Our guide told us that it is made in such a way that it remains warm inside at the time of snow. Because there is a lot of snow here in December's last to march .
It is believed that people who meditate here attain salvation.
But staying here and doing meditation is not in everyone's capacity.
The monastery we visited earlier looked something like this.Here the trees were very difficult to see. Because most of the stones were rocks.Few clouds and the monasteries below them. I am getting a different kind of relief here.
After we roam around here we see a little monestry .It was at a crossroads. And the view of Snow Mountains (Himalayas) from behind it was also looking very beautiful.
We had visited all the monasteries in Shanti Stupa. Then it was time to go to Himalaya view point.
We got to see such a scene by going to the Himalayan view point.Everyone's heart was happy after seeing this view.
Seeing this, I was thinking that what we call heaven is no where else, it is only on earth.Because it was like heaven and there was such a cold and full wind that it was making us feel as if it was welcoming us.
After that it was time to say bye bye to Shanti Stupa.
We came back to the top of the Shanti Stupa where the vehicles were parked. And while leaving, took the last shot of the Shanti Stupa.
Thanks for spending your valuable time here.meet you in the next post i hope you all enjoyed it.
