Grade **
Fixed Departure 16th Feb - 22nd Feb '12
About the Tour : Dosmochey is celebrated in Leh (Leh Palace), Liker (Lower Ladakh) and Deskit (Nubra valley) monasteries in February. The most famous among all is Leh Dosmochey, which is celebrated for two days in the courtyards of the Leh palace. The monks from different monasteries perform the Chams every year turn by turn. This is the festival of the scapegoat and is celebrated with fervor at Leh. For the Dosmoche, a great wooden mast decorated with streamers and religious emblems is set up outside Leh. At the appointed time, offerings of storma - ritual figures moulded out of dough, are brought out and ceremonially cast away into the desert, or burnt. It is believed that these scapegoats carry away with them the evil spirits of the previous year, and thus the town is cleansed and absolutely ready to welcome the New Year.
