The seven-day Ladakh Festival concluded here today with thousands of people, including tourists from across the country and abroad, gathering at the historic Leh Polo Ground to witness cultural programmes.

This year, the festival was delayed in order to extend the tourist season in the picturesque Leh in Jammu and Kashmir.

The festival began on September 20 with a march of locals wearing traditional dress from main bazaar to the Polo Ground.

During the festival, various events, including folk dance, polo match and 'thanka' exhibition, were organised.
