A Taste of Ladakh and Its Festivals
Short on time, but big on adventure - This trip is for you!
If you have limited time, want to enjoy the
Himalayas and one of its most intact
Buddhist cultures, this short summer
excursion to Ladakh is for you. After a day
in Delhi, you fly across the sky, touching
mountains into Leh, the capital of Ladakh,
or Little Tibet. Here you spend a week
visiting the different monasteries and
participating in one of the many summer
festivals.
Along the way, you can visit with the
shaman, stay in a local home and explore
the fascinating blend of the Buddhist and
Muslim cultures. Note that there may be
slight deviations from the itinerary,
depending on festival schedule.
