Historical, Cultural Experiences & Spiritual Significance of Tiggar

  • Though not widely documented in travel literature, Tiggar has existed for centuries as a traditional Ladakhi farming village.
  • Like much of Nubra, it lies along ancient trade routes that once connected Ladakh with Central Asia through the Karakoram Pass.
  • The villagers follow Tibetan Buddhism and maintain sacred prayer sites and chortens (stupas) in and around the settlement.
  • Cultural values such as communal harmony, eco-sustainability, and deep spiritual faith are still actively practiced here.
