On the roads of Indian Tibet, Ladakh - Journeys
Set between the Himalaya and the Karakorum and linked for centuries by trade routes to India, Central Asia and Tibet, Ladakh has been, and still is, a crossroads between different cultures.
The journey organised by Chiara Bellini, art historian of the Indo-Himalayan world and Tibetologist, currently Curator at the Rubin Museum of Art in New York, aims to discover the most important historical, artistic and religious sites of central Ladakh.
The places that will be visited will allow us to explore the historical events of the region and its cultural, economic and political relations with neighbouring countries, but above all they will allow us to explore the religious and artistic traditions that have developed over the centuries and, in particular, the iconography of Indo-Tibetan Buddhism and its deep symbolism.
Part of the registration fee will be donated to our Projects in Tibet.
