Description: Truly a striking place, the deep blue Tso (lake) Kar in eastern Ladakh and its salt-sprinkled beaches. Because it is surrounded by mountains with no natural outlets and was once much larger in area, the lake is brackish. Large salty deposits sit underwater like slush (we put our feet in) and gives a frost-like covering of the surrounding plain.
