Mountain Homestays - Sojourn with Local Copper Artisans of Ladakh
Tour info
Why take this tour?
Artisans of Ladakh are experts of making copper artifacts for hundreds of years. Sadly, this art is fading away and is now left limited to a few remote pockets in Ladakh. Through this tour, we want to revive this dying art and also help in improving the livelihood of the villagers. We will take you to the last remaining four Himalayan villages where this art is still practiced. Try you hands on making small pendants, engrave your name on copper plate, and just be creative with the artist himself. Take back a memorable souvenir for yourself. Stay at our beautiful village homestays which are powered by solar energy, and experience what it's like to live closest to the real Himalayan culture.
