The confluence from Padam's Gompa
The Tsarap Lingti Chu (in picture) flowing in from ESE meets the Doda or Chankpo river flowing from the WNW to then flow directly north as the Zanskar river. The new Manali - Padam - Leh road is first along the Lingti from Darcha and then goes along the Zanskar till Nimu. Manali will be about 180 kms from Padam.
