Saspochey is a traditional Ladakhi settlement, believed to have existed for several centuries. The village lies along the ancient route between Likir and Alchi, and served as an important stop for monks, traders, and pilgrims traversing this spiritual and economic corridor.
The region has strong ties to Buddhist heritage, with several chortens (stupas), mani walls, and rock engravings scattered around the outskirts of the village. Many local families have ancestral links to nearby monasteries like Likir, Alchi, and Basgo, and the community continues to celebrate key Buddhist festivals with devotion and grandeur.
