Nimo, Ladakh

Nimo[a] or Nyemo[2] (Tibetan: སྙེ་མོ་, Wylie: snye mo) is a village and the headquarters of an eponymous community development block in the Leh district of Ladakh, India.

Due to such a harsh climate and extreme weather conditions, this area has very little vegetation cover (as seen in the picture on the right).

[4] Magnet Hill is a gravity defying road[5][6] 7.5 km southeast of Nimoo.

Along with the Ganges, the Indus river is also considered very important in Hindu theology.

[8] Sri Pathar Sahib Gurudwara is also situated in this town and is important to Sikhs.
