Khalatse (Wylie: mkhar la rtse, THL: khar la tsé), often written as Khaltse or Khalsi, is the headquarters of the eponymous subdivision, block and tehsil in the Leh district of Ladakh, India.[1][2] It is located 95 km from Leh city on the old main road to Kargil, where it crosses the Indus over an iron bridge.[3] Much of its importance is because it is the place where the road from Kashmir debouches into the Indus Valley.[4]
Close by are the remains of an old fortified customs house.[5] Khaltsi is also the location of the upcoming new Sindhu Central University of Ladakh.[6][undue weight? – discuss]
