Le lac Tso Kar n'est pas un must en lui-même : lac salé, en grande partie asséché, il crée une zone de marécage et est bordé d'un hameau misérable. Mais le site est époustouflant. Pour l'atteindre, il a fallu grimper des kilomètres et des kilomètres de piste. La pureté du ciel ici, à 4270 mètres d'altitude, est incomparable. Un camp de tentes accueille les touristes de passage pour une nuit en ces lieux vraiment magiques. Les nomades ont marqué de leur empreinte le caractère religieux des lieux : un chorten blanc perdu au plus haut des montagnes himalayennes, ou encore des drapeaux de prières tendus sur des piquets de fortune. Bouddha ! Que la montagne est belle !

Il nome Tso Kar significa lago bianco, per via dei residui minerali e i depositi di sale che lo circondano e ne fanno risaltare le sfumature blu e turchesi. Qui i nomadi Khampa per secoli hanno estratto il sale usato come merce di scambio in Ladakh.
