People of Korzok village in Ladakh

July 22, 2016 Travel

Six years back we reached this small village right next to Tso-Moriri Lake — 15000ft above the sea level — about 215kms from Leh.
This place is known for the monastery that I had never heard of. Residents belong to the Changpa Tribe and are mostly info farming and rearing livestock that includes famous Pashmina goats.

Here are some of the pictures. Hope you like them.
