    The people of Ladakh have adapted to the harsh living conditions in several ways. They have developed sustainable practices like artificial glaciers to store water for irrigation and drinking. Their homes are designed with thick walls and minimal windows to retain heat in the freezing temperatures. The locals grow crops that are well-suited to the desert-like climate and sparse soil.
