Suru Valley is mainly drained by the Suru River and houses the main town of Kargil. There are approximately 25,000 people in this valley, who are descendants of Dard and Tibetan communities. Large numbers of local population are followers of Shia Islam, who were converted from Tibetan Buddhism in the 16th century.
Tourism in this valley is very limited and majority of the travellers go to the nearby places like Zanskar and Padum. The tourist facilities in the region are not good and visitors have to find accommodation in the summer tent camps in Rangdum.
