Camel Safari tours

Ladakh was the connection point between Central Asia and South Asia when the Silk Route was in use. The sixty-day journey on the Ladakh route connecting Amritsar and Yarkand through eleven passes was frequently undertaken by traders till the third quarter of the 19th century. The traders from China, Mongolia, Afghanistan etc traveled with caravans carrying Salt, spices, herbs, Narcotics, Gold, Silver, carpets and silk through this route. These Bactrian camels which are double hump are supposed to be either from Mongolia or China. Once the trade was stopped these camels were left here and the local breaded them for carriage etc.
