Diskit Gompa, a place of devotion amidst the mountains of Leh Ladakh

Diskit Gompa, or Diskit Monastery, is the oldest and largest Buddhist monastery in the Nubra Valley. Established over 600 years ago, its highlight is the massive Maitreya Buddha statue, towering over 30 meters high, facing the valley. It serves as a symbol of peace and compassion. From the monastery, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Himalayas and the small villages below. The monastery is also a religious center, hosting a long tradition of prayers and rituals. The tranquil atmosphere is ideal for meditation and spiritual rest. Diskit Gompa is not only a sacred site, but also a destination that deeply reflects the culture, faith, and beauty of Ladakh. #discountwithoutluck #lehladakh #nubra
