Destination@Doorstep a noted Travelling Agency is trying to give main emphasis on benefiting the locals of that particular area by focusing on no or low impact tourism. They generally attempt to buy local produce and handicrafts and employing local staff and sensitizing their clients to the local traditions and customs. By doing this they not only bring economic gain to the locals but also respect their customs. On all their cultural tours our guides wear the local dress and interact with the locals so that you tourists a real feel and ambience of that particular region.

Zanskar monasteries
Ladakh's entire way of life revolves around the numerous Monasteries in and around Leh and Zanskar. The monasteries around Leh are relatively in close proximity to each other compared to the ancient monasteries in the Zanskar region which are spread out over a vast area and quite isolated and need to be reached by foot.

Zanskar also has its share of ancient monasteries except that unlike Ladakh monasteries which are relatively close to each the Zanskar monasteries are at quite a distance from each other very high up on the cliffs of hills. Some of the more famous monasteries are Zangla, Rangdum Karsha, Bardan and Stongde. The Zangla palace is now in ruins but well worth a visit. After a fruitful 4 day trip tourists can stop over in Zangla to spend the day with a Zanskari family and experience the difference between the Ladakhi and Zanskari way of life.
