Immerse in Buddhist Culture

Hemis Festival Special

Hemis Festival is a two-day celebration, offering insight into the culture of the region. The main attraction of Hemis Festival is the masked dance performances by the Lamas around the central flagpole in the courtyard while the musicians play some traditional music. The beats of drums and trumpets and the sounds of cymbals and wind instruments commence the celebration of the festival with an early morning ceremony in which thousands of Buddhist followers and Ladakhi nomads take blessings from the portrait of Lord Padmasambhava.

Campervan Camp next to Hemis Monastery is the best option to stay and enjoy the festival as well as the village Hemis and to offer the best photo tour and family holidays in Ladakh. Taurus is the most well equipped overland truck (recreational vehicle RV) in India as of now.

Mask Dance showcases the best of Buddhist culture at Hemis Festival at Hemis Monastery in Ladakh. We organise the best photo tour for the Hemis Festival, camp just few hundred meters from the venue in our campervan camp.
