Drass Valley - Leh to Srinagar road - Kashmir

The tents is an encampment of very poor Muslim Kashmiri Gujjars (nomads).

During the summer months, Kashmiri Gujjars (nomads) set camps in the meadows in the highest parts of Drass Valley. The Drass valley starts from the base of the Zojila pass, the Himalayan gateway to Ladakh.
