Julley Everyone,

Starting the beautiful day out here today, somewhere in the wonderland, unknown where we were at such an high altitude, place and isolated hidden regions of the lands beyond the Himalayas.

Driving through the highway, unknown to the places unknown with the landscapes, unknown, but truly whatever I could see was a lot of adventure and countless number of memories that we made, so we were somewhere between the whole journey as this place was quite isolated, no network, no Wi-Fi and even the GPS of my mobile phone was struggling at certain points. We were somewhere between the Nyoma and Martselang Village.

The landscapes beyond kind of looked something just like this. It was literally the cold himalayan desert, and in winter time, the whole place would get covered with a thick sheet of snow that lasts for half the time of the year, and it was only the time of the year, when the place was easily accessible. My Ladakh expedition kind of went so well that I was able to explore few of the most beautiful hidden corners that I was even not aware about.

So was this one among them? It was really a beautiful moment, so I tried capturing these photographs and so that I could share it with you guys through this post and it was the day when we started our journey all the way from. Nyoma to Martselang.

And the total journey kind of as what the local people told me it would be more than 5 to 6 hours, literally to be honest, my friends, we were not sure about that what this place exactly was even I was not even able to find the whole proper portion as it was somewhere in between so, I also captured this photographs all along the Journey.

The Castles of Sand

This was the another wonderful thing that I saw when I was on my journey. There were these natural formed of Castle like structures in the mountains. It was the whole himalayan desert region was just so amazed to see the structure like these that was just rightly naturally built in this mountain.

As far as I just thought about, they were just formed because of the running winds at this place for quite a lot of time. I was not even able to find even a single person or a house in between my journey and it was all isolated breeze at higher altitude beyond these regions of the cold Himalayas desert.

Beyond the spot, wherever we could see there, were these structures all around the journey all around the place.

The Journey Beyond....

As far as I remember since we started our journey and it had been more than three hours or so, and in between of nearby, I would say the patch of 10 km or 20 km. The whole region kind of something like this at certain point we could clearly see the structures writing in front of our eyes on the other side of the valley. It was really a whole lot of a different experience that I got to see when I was at the place.

We were even so tired enough driving at the higher altitude in the Himalayas as the high altitude, even cause motion sickness, but all together, my friends, the views like this beautiful heavenly views that I have not even imagined or thought about they were just letting all our tiredness vanish awayjust be so much interest looking into the beautiful beauty of the Himalayas. We had nothing to do except seeing outside and no Wi-Fi, no cellular phone, nothing at all the views just right next to the window. They were just so heavenly that I could still remember and I’m gonna remember it throughout my lifetime.

The whole mountain ranges. They were just all formed up by the sand that it seemed like to me, and I was just even thinking about that place would look in the winter season. The whole place will get covered under a thick sheet of snow, but it is really very hard to visit the place during the winter season as the roads they are not accessible due to the high snow Around the place and the road is even covered under the snow.

The journey kind of looked something just like I tried capturing as many photographs as I could show that you guys could also experience such hidden beauty from the Himalayas. I have captured all of these photographs using Apple iPhone 12 and edited them using iPhone to editor, do let me know the portion of the adventure you liked the most in the comment section I’m gonna love hearing it from you.

Tiny Passages between the castles.

Another thing that I noticed when I was at the place while just wondering around that there were the small passages just write through the castles of sand that referring to my imagination, which was formed the structure altogether.
