Leh is located in the Indian Union Territory of Ladakh and is part of the culturally rich Tibetan Buddhist region. The majority of Leh's population practices Buddhism, followed by Islam. The synergy between these two religions has resulted in a unique fusion of cultures and traditions. This can be observed in the numerous Buddhist monasteries, mosques, and even examples of Buddhist-Islamic architecture. Leh also has a small group of Sikhs and Hindus who contribute to the religious diversity.
