The diverse festivals of Ladakh and Kashmir offer a rich tapestry of cultural experiences and vibrant celebrations for travelers to enjoy.
The many local “melas” feature traditional rituals, folk performances, and a bustling carnival atmosphere with music, dance, and local delicacies, bringing the community together in joyous celebration. At the Shikara festival on Dal Lake, travelers can witness colorful boat races, while the Hemis festival of Ladakh provides a window into the region’s cultural and spiritual traditions. The region also celebrates nature with its unique Saffron and Tulip festivals.

Our three-week trip with our five-year-old son took us first through the tropical south in Kerala and then along the 'Golden Triangle' in the north, including detours to several national parks. This enabled us to get to know two parts of the country that were very different in terms of culture and landscape and to experience at least some of India's diversity. We will always remember the impressions of the lives of the people and nature. Despite the intense experiences, we were able to relax thanks to the accommodations (oasis of peace) that were well-selected by the travel agent. The conversations with our two drivers and the people in the host families were enriching. We hardly came across any Western families. With a little travel experience, however, even small children are no obstacle to traveling to this exciting country.
