3 years agoBeautiful palace located just outside of the Leh city, with amazing views of Leh and the surrounding areas. It's the current residence of the ex-royal family and also a heritage hotel. Only the lower floors, where the museum is located, are open to public. The museum is ok and holds many historical artifacts from the royal family and other places in Ladakh. There's a small restaurant and a cafe. It feels nice to just sit at the cafe and take in the view. Avoid going here around 1 PM because it's their lunch time and they won't let you in.
