In Srinagar, ambassador Gor met chief minister Omar Abdullah to discuss strengthening bilateral ties and later visited Leh to experience Ladakh’s culture and traditions,” the official account of the US embassy in India wrote on X.

Earlier in the day, Gor visited the historic Thiksey monastery, one of the largest and most prominent monasteries in central Ladakh, about 19km from Leh. The monastery is widely noted for its resemblance to the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet.
