One of the memorable festival of my life...

Last year I visited Ladakh on time of hemis festival. this was my solo trip for. I was very much excited over the trip, actually I had planned this trip over a year..
Hemis festival is basically musk dance festival of Buddhism at hemis monestry in Ladakh.Hemis Festival in Ladakh is celebrated annually on the 10th day of the Tse-Chu, Lunar month of the Tibetan Calendar. The 2-day fiesta marks the birth anniversary of Guru Padmasambhava. On this day, Hemis Monastery is adorned beautifully to host the ceremony. The colorful festival showcases the beautiful handicrafts of the area. Natives also dress up in lovely traditional attires and gather in the hemis monestry. Lamas dance around central flagpole to the tunes of drums, cymbals and long horns. The otherwise cold-barren desert comes to life during Hemis Festival. The mask dance is known Chham Dance’ .
