Interesting facts about this location
Shingo River
The Shingo River is a tributary of the Suru River, and flows through the Ladakh region. The Shingo river enters India from Pakistan-administered Kashmir and meets the Dras River, coming from Dras. 5km from Kargil the merged river meets the Suru River and again re-enters Pakistani territory. The Shingo river is clearer than other rivers in Ladakh because it is formed from melting ice.
