Ladakh Tourism
From Umling-La’s celestial heights to Alchi Kitchen’s warmth, Wanla and Lamayuru Monasteries’ timeless grace, Moljok’s Heritage House, and the Himalayan Film Festival, Tourism Ambassador Vanshika Parmar wove Ladakh’s culture, heritage, and spirit into a radiant story—promoting its wonders with poise, pride, and a touch of the dreamy eternal.
Extending his gratitude to Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and Home Minister Shri Amit Shah, EC Tashi Yakzee appreciated the recent decision of Home Ministry to allow international tourists to reside in Hanle for night stay and opening Martsemik and Sko valley for tourism and trekking.
On the occasion, promoting the ‘One Earth, One Family’ theme of G20 India, a foundation stone was laid for the construction of Lord Buddha’s statue at Umling-la for World Peace, in which the sand brought by the models from their respective countries was also immersed.
Being the first international tourists allowed for night stay in Hanle, the villagers expressing their elation over the landmark decision of Home Ministry felicitated the models and performed exclusive cultural performances in their honour.
