Kargil

Kargil was the biggest city we'd been to in almost a month. It was busy and bustling and there seemed to be food everywhere. We each ate a chicken from the market where we spent a considerable amount of time. Kargil is the overnight stop for the Srinagar-Leh bus and many travellers arrive late and leave the next morning. If you do not arrive early in the day, beds are hard to come by or ridiculously overpriced. As we arrived early, we found a decent place to stay. We spent two nights in Kargil to restock and we also took the time to visit the town which was very enjoyable.
