Alchi Monastery
Alchi Monastery, known for its remarkable frescoes and well-preserved sculptures. The intricate artwork found here serves as a window into the past, offering insights into the religious and artistic practices of the time. The monastery’s murals, adorned with intricate detailing and vivid colors, depict various aspects of Buddhist teachings, history, and mythology. The local tradition and the records borne by the inscriptions differ on the builder of the monastery yet ascribe the date between 958 and 1055 – making it the region’s oldest monastery.
Alchi Kitchen nearby is the first Ladakhi restaurant to be featured by National Geographic. Enjoy a meal that unearths some of the unique flavors of traditional Ladakhi food and beverages – a few lost recipes brought back to life, others curated with an innovative contemporary twist.
