Soundtrack of a Drive Through Ladakh’s Mountain Passes

The YouTube video below was my favorite track while traveling through the mountains of Ladakh. Sure, it’s a very enchanting melody. But it also had a very practical benefit: It’s really hard for Buddhist drivers to speed down a mountain with that kind of a soundtrack. Unfortunately we didn’t have the extended version featured here. Thus our blissful break from pot hole bingo was limited to a mere five minutes.
