Cham Dance at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery






We visited Tashi Lhunpo Monastery in South India during Losar (Tibetan new year) during which the annual Cham Dance was taking place. It was quite a festival! Cham dancing is an ancient ceremonial tradition where monks dress in symbolic and elaborate costumes whilst performing hypnotic dances, accompanied by chanting, horns and drums.
