The traditional art of kiln-fired pottery making is centuries old. It is practised in the western region of Ladakh, in the Sham Valley and is currently practiced only in Likir village. So next time you are in the region, try your hand at pottery making like Siddhant.
2. Go for a bike ride in the mountains

The terrain of Leh Ladakh is challenging because of its rocky roads and lack of oxygen due to the high altitude. But if you are an adventure lover, you must go mountain biking and feel the air inside you while riding.
3. Enjoy traditional Ladakhi food

Last but certainly not least, no travel experience is complete unless you mingle with the locals and make a friend or two. This gives you a deeper insight into the region’s history, culture, food, music and beyond from a personal perspective. So just like in theory, make friends with a cute local kid or an elderly gentleman during your time in Ladakh.
