Ladakh is an out-of-the-world destination with a rugged inhospitable terrain, a well-preserved ancient culture and immense natural wealth. This region remained shrouded in mystery for centuries because of its inaccessibility. The harmonious mingling of people of varied origins, distinct cultures and different religions has resulted in a unique fusion of people in Ladakh. Though it has been open to tourism since 1974, construction of motorable roads in difficult terrain and opening the hitherto restricted areas to tourists is a recent phenomenon. Ladakh has become an irresistible destination for nature lovers, researchers and adventure seekers of the world. Dr Tilak Ranjan Bera, born in Kolkata, India, is an avid nature lover and has a passion for travelling, writing and photography. He has authored several pictorial books on India. He was awarded the Fulbright-Nehru Fellowship by the United States-India Educational Foundation and Senior Research Fellowship by the Indian Government. He was an Associate at Yale University,USA during the Fulbright Fellowship. The author has explored every corner of Ladakh for three decades and has done extensive studies related to the place. A keen observer, his book contains information on all aspects of Ladakhs natural, cultural and human wealth, described in his unique style and in a lucid manner. He has painstakingly collected photographs and captured various moods of the terrain in different season and presented the rich and fascinating cultural heritage of the region in an interesting manner. Meticulous presentation and exclusive photographs make this book a collectors choice. In this book, the author has presented every aspect of the territory with exclusive photographs and it can easily be considered the best book ever produced on Ladakh by an Indian author. -----Shri Omar Abdullah, Chief Minister, Jammu and Kashmir A fascinating pictorial display of an amazingly interesting region of the world. With a Foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

Everybody has a story, but nobody’s story is quite like Wally and Zizza’s. Told by their son now they have passed, Wally and Zizza’s Amazing Journey is more than a family history, exploring the dramatic twentieth century through the lens of his parents. Through wars, emigration and exploration, the couple took on the world together, searching for new discoveries in both outer and inner landscapes. They lived on four continents, met with great teachers, dealt with wars and passed on lessons to their children. All of this astounding adventure is illustrated throughout by the extensive use of documents and photographs Louis shares, along with personal recollections and historical research. Told with humour and great affection, Wally and Zizza’s Amazing Journey chronicles the laughs, the lows and every little and large moment that made up a spectacular life. Readers who enjoy road stories, as well as a detailed look at the events of the twentieth century, will delight in a story that examines history through an intrepid couple’s eyes - and perhaps inspire a change in perspective for those open to it.

If Himalayas are the landscape of the mind, Ladakh defines it as a landscape. Ladakh -- the region with world's highest mountains was opened to the outside world in 1970s. Before that the entire region lived in oblivion inside their own world; ice cold winters and warm summers with green apricot trees blossoming in its barren landscape. The short summers are celebration for the people, dancing and drinking only to pave way for the apricot leaves to turn yellow and red; paving the way for arrival of long cold winters. Closing down of Tibet by China and similarity of the region to Tibet, encouraged people to travel and explore Ladakh. The unique landscape of white chortens, terraced Gompas, wooden mosques scattered in the barrenness of the land made it stand out and encouraged more and more travellers to explore and search for the lost "Sangri-la". Of course no one found Shangri-La; but in the process discovered something even more profound and rich. The place which is still older than time, which had long trade relations with Central Asia, where the Himalayas and the Karakoram ranges rest. Its art and architecture inspired from India, Tibet, central Asia and made richer by amalgamation of Muslim cultures from Persia. The architecture is perplexing at times, not only because of the terrain it is built on, low rooms, or small openings; but it is different also in the way we perceive it from our sense. The texture of earth on walls, the stone-clad pathways, timber roofs and mud floors transports us to hundreds of years. The old houses built close to each other forms a labyrinth which is difficult to decipher; thus making us even more confused.
