PROFILE
Not many hotels or guesthouses existed before Ladakh was put on the
international tourist map. The first few hotels in Leh town of Ladakh
came up early in the year 1974,when for the first time Ladakh was thrown
open to tourists from all over the world. The opening up of Ladakh for
tourists also marked the entry of entrepreneurs in the field of
establishment and running of hotels to cater to the growing needs of the
tourists.
Hotel Dragon in Leh town of Ladakh was the brainchild of one such
enterprising man named Din Mohammad of the Abdu family.With humble
beginnings Hotel Dragon today is a fully loaded hotel in Ladakh with all
facilities. Those were the days when the number of people coming from
foreign countries was just a trickle. How ever this was to change
dramatically in the following years necessitating increase in
accomodation and expansion in facilities for the comfort of the
tourists.
