		<title>#IndiaisCalling &ndash; Live at WTM London</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Held annually in London, World Travel Market is the leading B2B event for the global travel and tourism industry. This year from 7 &ndash; 9 November, over 50000 travel professionals from 186 countries and regions will converge at the must-attend exhibition to network and discover the latest industry opinions and trends.In a press release dated 19 July, WTM announced India Tourism as its Premier Partner, as the Indian Government looks to promote the diverse tourism products the country offers &ndash; and laud growth numbers. In reality however, in terms of tourist arrivals per annum, India lags well behind many other countries, an indication that previous government initiatives at WTM have fallen short of showcasing India as &ldquo;Incredible&rdquo;. Will the result this year be any different?At Holiday Scout we believe the time has come for strategic change and we are proud to partner with #IndiaisCalling, a program made in India to inspire travel to India. The first challenge we stakeholders face is convincing travelers that India is a safe and attractive country to travel to. Success here depends on our ability to share great travel stories through all available media channels, to inform and guide travelers on how to plan their trips to India and, ultimately, to connect travelers with trusted brands in India. &nbsp;WTM is the best possible arena in which to present the #IndiaisCalling program to a global travel audience. And Holiday Scout will be there in spirit, represented by Ajay Jain of Kunzum &ndash; Stand IN255.<br>Original post at: <a href="https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/indiaiscalling-live-at-wtm-london/">https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/indiaiscalling-live-at-wtm-london/</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In travel, a sudden change in plans is more likely to bring you lemonade than lemons. And my experience has been that this is true for both the guests and the guide! Two weeks back, I received a call from a guiding buddy. He needed a last minute replacement for his group of nine travelers from Barcelona, Spain. Could I take over on the Buddhist Circuit in Arunachal Pradesh? I was in the region and ready to go.The group was not tethered to a particular itinerary. So this flexibility allowed us to jump, quite literally, into the Monastery &amp; Tribal Discovery tour with Holiday Scout. Whether making momos in Dirang or meditating with monks in Tawang, the guests were living proof that the more you try new things, the more fun life is!At Holiday Scout we know that it&rsquo;s good to have a schedule, but we also believe that an unexpected change to it can be a wonderful stroke of good luck. Traveling is about letting life take you where you want to go. When you&rsquo;re ready, we&rsquo;re ready.<br>Original post at: <a href="https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/when-life-gives-you-lemonade/">https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/when-life-gives-you-lemonade/</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How many countries offer as much variety for travelers as India? Wildlife, landscapes, history, art, architecture, spirituality, tribes, festivals, cuisines, bazaars, and more; India has everything that a traveler can ask for.Yet India is also one of the most poorly marketed travel destinations in the world, and this is something that needs to be remedied.&nbsp; &nbsp;Devised by travel author and photographer Ajay Jain of Delhi, #IndiaisCalling is an innovative public relations and marketing campaign that harnesses conventional and new media channels to inform and inspire tourists &ndash; both foreign and domestic &ndash; to explore India. Success of the program hinges on stakeholders from the Indian travel industry coming together and contributing to the effort &ndash; and Holiday Scout is proud to be a partner in this initiative! Watch this space for information as events unfold.&nbsp;#IndiaisCalling &ndash; Pick up and let&rsquo;s talk travel!<br>Original post at: <a href="https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/we-travel-how-about-you/">https://theholidayscout.com/blog/uncategorized/we-travel-how-about-you/</a>]]></description>

		<title>Five Irresistible Reasons to Visit Ladakh</title>
		<link>https://theholidayscout.com/blog/tribe-and-culture/five-irresistible-reasons-to-visit-ladakh/</link>

		<description><![CDATA[A&nbsp; Photographer&rsquo;s DreamMost of Ladakh lies at an altitude above 3000 meters. Ancient mountains made of granite and deep sea sediment display a striped and surrealistic coloring which, in the absence of forest, is amplified against a dark blue cobalt sky. Deep-hued lakes sparkle like jewels in the arid desert and sinuous rivers flow through craggy gorges, punctuated occasionally by the small green oasis of a village. All this forms a stunning backdrop against which the enchanting faces, dwellings and monasteries of the region are presented, images beckoning to be captured.A Gateway to Outdoor AdventureFed by snow melt from the lofty Tibetan plateau, the mighty Zanskar River unites with the Indus in a dramatic gorge near Nimmu Village in Ladakh. Offering class 3 rapids and views of a canyon lined with rippling layers of rock that formed during the uplift of the Himalayas, a rafting expedition here is a must-try activity. For those geared up to the fitness level required for trekking, Ladakh has many routes that provide spectacular views on their way past tiny hamlets and remote Gompas. A Showcase for Tibetan Buddhist Art &amp; ArchitectureThe proximity and influence of Tibet gave firm root to Buddhism in the North and East of Ladakh. Here prayer flags dot the landscape and conical whitewashed Chorten stand like sentinels guarding each village and monastery. Often nestled into cliff sides, the Gompa are places of retreat. A winding upward path opens onto a courtyard from which steps lead away to various assembly halls and vestibules. The outside walls are often painted with frescoes while inside, Thangka scrolls depicting central Buddhist figures are filled with the colors of crushed stones and a generous splash of gold.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;A Taste of the Silk RoadA walk around the narrow lanes of Leh Bazaar feels like stepping into a time capsule, going back to the days before souvenir seeking tourists arrived on the scene. There are many shops dealing in Thangkas, precious stones and artifacts like Gur-Gur, the container in which buttered tea is churned, and Perak headdresses studded with turquoise. Village markets are equally charming and offer genuine handicrafts of good workmanship at reasonable rates.A Land of Warmhearted People and CustomsIn Ladakh, sunny smiles and the magical greeting &ldquo;Jhuley&rdquo; welcome visitors. In any home, whether affluent or humble, guests are invited for a cup of tea and a place on the best rug in the house. Ladakhi food is wholesome, featuring noodles, vegetables and dumplings, and Ladakhi dress made of homespun wool is warm and comfortable. On auspicious occasions, ladies don embroidered aprons and shoes along with glittering jewelry and a top hat. Thanksgiving festivals after harvest are celebrated with fanfare and music, offering a wonderful glimpse of local villagers in their traditional finery.<br>Original post at: <a href="https://theholidayscout.com/blog/tribe-and-culture/five-irresistible-reasons-to-visit-ladakh/">https://theholidayscout.com/blog/tribe-and-culture/five-irresistible-reasons-to-visit-ladakh/</a>]]></description>
