Last destination-Chang LaWorlds’ third highest pass has a strange story attached to it. Located at an elevation of 5,360 meters the pass is on route to Pangong Lake from Leh. The pass has a temple dedicated to Changla Baba. It is believed among the locals that saying ” Lets leave this place” or something similar to that brings ill omen to the travelers. According to myth saying such a thing makes Changla Baba angry and he follows your vehicle and you might face an accident on your way.
Though a myth when I visited this place I did not dare to say such a thing. I am not superstitious by nature but still past few days of my trip had turned out to be what you can call more than an adventurous trip so wanted to give a little halt to more adventures in this trip.
PANAGONG TSO
(14000ft and Highest Salt Water Lake in the world).Just about 160 km from Leh is a beautiful lake named the Pangong Lake. A drive to this lake is a wonderful experience. The journey begins at Thiksey village, which is famous for its huge monasteries covering an entire mountain range. And beyond this remote village there is nothing but the vast expanse of extreme mountain ranges for company. An interesting observation of the topography throughout this journey is that they throw off all calculations of distance somewhat like a mirage-effect, what looked to be a ten-minute crossing easily requires an hour or more!This spectacular lakeside is open during the tourist season, which lasts from May to September.
The beautiful Pangong Tso Lake was featured in the last scene of the blockbuster movie ‘3 Idiots’ in the year 2010. After the success of the movie, this beautiful natural location has been a major attraction for tourists from all over the globe.
