The two day Hemis Festival is on at the moment near in Ladakh, in far northern India. It's held every year at the 300-year-old Buddhist monastery of Hemis Jangchub Choling, near Leh.

The Hemis Festival is an incredible opportunity to experience ancient monastery culture. It's extremely colorful and captivating, as this Hemis Festival Photo Gallery shows. I haven't seen such dazzling photos in a long time. Just look at the setting!
