Leh Palace is very close from the city centre and you can reach there by a car or even walk up to the palace. It's construction was completed in the 17th century and it is a perfect example of Medieval Tibetan Architecture. You will be quite amused to see how the construction is done from stones, sand and wood which has remained quite intact till now. You can also have a panoramic view of the city from the roof of palace.

Shanti Stupa is another must visit place if you are in Leh, it is beautiful and serene. I would suggest you to plan your visit around sunset time, you won't be disappointed as you will be able to experience amazing sunset and have picturesque view of the valley from here. Stay up there till evening, as the stupa is illuminated when it gets dark making it look more beautiful.
