Below are the activities / key destinations we visited during the journey.
Pangong Tso is at a height of almost 4,350m (14,300 ft). Pangong Lake is the world’s highest salt lake.
This scenic wonder derives its name from the Tibetan word, Pangong Tso, which means high grassland lake.
One third part of the lake lies in India and the other 2 third in China.
It is also known for the famous movie shooting points like 3 idiots and Jab tak hai jaan.
Maan village located at an altitude of 4250m in Ladakh. We had lunch here.

Thukpa: Rs 130
Chushul Memorial pays respect to those Indian soldiers of 1962 Indo China war.
Rezang La, also called Rechin La, is a mountain pass on the Line of Actual Control between Indian-administered Ladakh and the Chinese-administered Spanggur Lake basin that is also claimed by India.
Battle of Rezang La took place at Rezang La Pass in Ladakh, India, during the Sino-Indian War on November 18, 1962, the Charlie Company of the 13 Kumaon Battalion, Kumaon Regiment, beat off a Chinese assault. 120 troops made up the company, which Major Shaitan Singh commanded.
There is a Memorial in Rezang La which pays respect to those Indian soldiers of 1962 Indo China war.
Rezang La Memorial is about 100 km away from Hanle.
Hanle is known for being the home to the Indian Astronomical Observatory.
We booked our room in Hanle House, they have good rooms, as of now only property in Hanle that has inverter for power backup.

Wow what a million dollar view of the mesmerizing blue lake. It seemed like sky is in the lap of mountains. Can't wait to see the star-lit milky way in next video.

I’m a 70 years old heart bypass surgery done patient. I have seen mostly almost vdos on Pangong lake. But this time when I saw your ep 7 Pangong Lake to Hanle it’s mesmerised me , just as if I’m seeing it with my own eyes due to your simple and detailed narration. Specially Geo-tech version since I was in Central Govt job and my whole life experience was working with Engineering Geologists though I was a Civil Engineer and working in investigation of Hydro-electric projects. Regarding Rezangla pass memorial you have beautifully briefed the bravery of Indian Army. “Jeevan Safal ho gaya” Sir. Bcoz I’ll never be able to visit these places. You have shown me live. Thanks 🙏

My Sunday morning starts with Visa2Explore latest episode along with some healthy breakfast, the Pangong lake views are beyond amazing, doesn't look this world's thing. I hope people will take care of this beautiful heritage as always. I noticed some typo error in the title of this video, please correct this.
