Historical, Cultural Experiences & Spiritual Significance of Korzok

Karzok is historically significant as a settlement of the Changpa nomads and a center of Tibetan Buddhist culture. The Karzok Monastery, over 300 years old, is an important spiritual site of the Drukpa lineage. The village was once visited by kings and traders who passed through the ancient Silk Route. Today, it continues to be a hub of cultural preservation, showcasing traditional nomadic lifestyles in harmony with Ladakh’s high-altitude ecology.
