We started our volunteering journey from the beautiful village of Turtuk, a small paradise located on the Indo-Pak border. This village was part of un-divided India until 1947, post which it became part of Gilgit - Baltistan or PoK. After the Bangladesh Liberation war of 1971, Turtuk along with 2 other villages, became part of the Indian territory.
Being a border village, for almost 40 years till 2010, this place was restricted for access by outsiders. But then it was opened up for tourism and since then it has become a popular destination for tourists visiting Nubra Valley in Ladakh.
We got lucky as we got to spend 6 months in this quaint village and we also had time to observe the lifestyle, listen to the stories, cover some hidden spots and much more during this period, things that are not known to the tourists and famous only amongst the locals.
In today’s video we are going to share some of these lesser known aspects about this amazing village.
