Festivals
provide somewhat a very peculiar kind of cultural aspect
Jammu and Kashmir's endless varsities.
Ladakh has majority of monastic festivals, one
thing that explains why this land is where the Buddha keeps returning.
Most of the great religious festivals of Ladakh fall in winter. The major
exception is the Hemis festival, the biggest of them all. In addition to
the monastic festivals practically all the villages have harvest
thanksgiving festivals and Archery events during summer. The two biggest
festivities of Jammu include Lohri, which marks the
culmination of winters and Baisakhi, also known as the harvest festival.
