Phukthal Monastery (Ladakh Solo Ride 2.0)

Phuktal Monastery or Phuktal Gompa (often transliterated as Phugtal) is a Buddhist monastery located in the remote Lungnak Valley in south-eastern Zanskar, in the Himalayan region of Ladakh, in Northern India. It is 52 km southeast of Padum on Nimmu–Padum–Darcha road (NPD). Until 2023 before Nimmu–Padum–Darcha road was built, it was one of the few Buddhist monasteries in Ladakh that could still be reached only by foot. Supplies to the monastery were brought on horses, donkeys, and mules in the warmer months, and in the frozen winters, they were transported through the frozen Zanskar River. Before the road was built, it was a day's walk from Village Chah or Village Khangsaar, the end of the road leading from Padum. #youtubeshortsvideo #youtuber #royalenfield #bikerdiaries #travel #trvelvlog #gopro #insta360 #himalayan411cc #2026 #manali #ladakh #lehladakh #zanskar #hanle #umlingla #khardungla #kargil #gonborangjon #bikevloggerindia #bikeridingvlog #travelonbike #adventurebike #roadtripvlog #motorcyclelifestyle #ataltunnel ‪@nikhilthetiger‬ ‪@Mast_Maulla‬ ‪@delhiroyalenfieldriders‬ ‪@royalenfielddelhi1998‬
