The climate is cold and dry, with little precipitation, mostly in the form of snow in the winter. Mulbekh monastery, 36 kilometres from Kargil on the way to Leh on National Highway 1D, is enshrined with a 9-meter tall idol of Maitreya Buddha (future) sculpted in the rocks.

The Dras War Memorial is a memorial established by the Indian Army near Kargil in commemoration of the troops and officers who died during the Kargil war in 1999. It's also known as Vijaypath, and it's made of pink sandstone with an epitaph honouring the brave troops.

In the Indian union territory of best places to visit in Ladakh, Zoji La is a high mountain pass in the Himalayas. The pass, which is located in the Dras, connects the Kashmir Valley to the west, the Dras and Suru valleys to the northeast, and the Indus valley to the east.

Uru Valley, like the rest of the state, is a stunningly beautiful valley with the Suru River, a major tributary of the Indus, running through it.
