"India gets its name from the Indus river!

Poplar trees with the sun shining through the leaves, a barren stark landscape (typical lunar landscape of Ladakh), with harsh mountains and rocks behind. This is Ladakh for you! Apricot trees around a village, a stream flowing by... Nice establishing shot for Ladakh!

The Indus River is a major river which flows through the full length of Pakistan. Originating in the Tibetan plateau in the vicinity of Lake Mansarovar in Tibet Autonomous Region, the river runs a course through the Ladakh district of Jammu and Kashmir, India and then enters Northern Areas (Gilgit-Baltistan), flowing through the North in a southerly direction along the entire length of Pakistan, to merge into the Arabian Sea near the port city of Karachi in Sindh. The total length of the river is 3,180 kilometers (1,976 miles) and it is Pakistan's longest river.
