Diskit Monastery

Statue of Lord Buddha

This popular monastery is located in the Nubra valley of Ladakh. The Diskit monastery was constructed during the 14th century by Changzem Tserab Zangpo. The huge 100 foot Maitra Buddha statue was inaugurated by the well-known holy priest Dalai Lama is the key attraction among a number of tourists across the globe. The view of Nubra valley from the top of the monastery where the statue is installed is breathtakingly beautiful.

How to Reach Diskit Monastery
Drive from Leh to Nubra Valley through Khardung la pass via car.
You can also go via bus, but then you have to rent a taxi to go to the monastery.
Diskit Monastery (really lovely setting with unbelievable views and a statue that seems to touch the sky)

Added attraction:

A few kms away in Hunder (still in the valley). Well organized activities for tourists including riding double-humped camels
- If you take my advice and stay 2-3 nights in the Nubra Valley to relax, I recommend you stay at the Hotel Stone Hedge.
