  1. Yes, Khardung-La in Ladakh. Check out the picture at http://picasaweb.google.com/sanjay.goel/...


  2. I would say yes.

    Khardong La is widely thought to be the highest motorable road in the world.

    Situated officially at 5359m above the sea level this road is maintained by the Indian Army's Corps, the pass is strategically important to India as it is used to carry essential supplies to the Siachen.

    However,  independent research by various institutes, most famously the Cartographic Institute of Catalonia have suggested the existence of even higher motorable roads in Tibet and further north-east in Ladakh.

    So till some accepted geo-survey authority comes out with an announcement which is seconded by others of equal repute, Khardong La and India will continue to hold this record.


  3. Khardung La pass, Ladakh region of J&K

  4. khardong la in kashmir
