The Ladakh Festival is a major event organized
every year by the Kashmir and Jammu Tourism Department in collaboration with the
local communities and the district government administrations. The festival
begins with a spectacular procession in which various cultural troupes and
village contingents participate in full ceremonial costumes, singing and
performing various types of colorful dances to the tune of the traditional
orchestra. Thousands of traditionally attired men and women line the route of
the procession, adding to the carnival atmosphere. At the polo ground, where the
procession terminates, the participants break into a variety of folk and popular
dances, presenting the best samples of the region's performing arts. Among the
regular programs, including a fortnight of musical concerts, lama dances and
folk ceremonies, the most colorful and exciting are the archery events. Designed
with an objective to revive and promote the richness, depth and pageantry of
Ladakh's centuries-old culture for worldwide appreciation and enjoyment, the
Ladakh Festival offers a unique opportunity to witness many of Ladakh’s
traditions and folk heritage in a very short time and without having to traverse
to its often formidable outlying areas. Our tour brings you to experience the
best of it. Our tour's daily program is not finalized until Kashmir and Jammu
Tourism Department publishes the schedule of events, released usually about two
weeks before the start of the festival, but all of the activities take place in
and around Leh. |
