Package Overview

Apart from the natural beauty of the blooms, the festival will also offer an array of vibrant cultural programs, showcasing Ladakh’s unique and colorful heritage. The festival is also an excellent opportunity to shop for locally made handicrafts, which are always an exciting feature of the Apricot Blossom Festival.
