Ladakh, constituting a part of the larger region of Kashmir, which has been the subject of dispute between India, Pakistan, and China since 1947.
It is bordered by the Chinese Tibet Autonomous Region to the east, the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh to the south, both the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir and the Pakistan-administered Gilgit-Baltistan to the west, and the southwest corner of Xinjiang across the Karakoram Pass in the far north.
It extends from the Siachen Glacier in the Karakoram range to the north to the main Great Himalayas to the south. The eastern end, consisting of the uninhabited Aksai Chin plains, is claimed by the Indian Government as part of Ladakh, and has been under Chinese control since 1962.
Until 2019, Ladakh was a region of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. In August 2019, the Parliament of India passed an act by which Ladakh became a union territory on 31 October 2019.
The largest town in Ladakh is Leh, followed by Kargil, each of which headquarters a district.
The Leh district contains the Indus, Shyok and Nubra river valleys.
The Kargil district contains the Suru, Dras and Zanskar river valleys.
The main populated regions are the river valleys, but the mountain slopes also support the pastoral Changpa nomads.
In contrast to the neighbouring Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh has a non-Muslim majority.
The main religious groups in the region are Muslims (mainly Shia) (46%), Tibetan Buddhists (40%), Hindus (12%) and others (2%).
Ladakh is one of the most sparsely populated regions in India.
As its culture and history are closely related to that of Tibet, it is known as the "Little Tibet".
Ladakh is the largest and the second least populous union territory of India.
