Road To Ladakh - Gateway To Heaven
The original population may have been Dards, an Indo- Aryan race from down the Indus. But immigration from Tibet, perhaps a millennium or so ago, has largely overwhelmed the culture of the "Dards" and today's population seems to be mostly of Tibetan origin resulting in a great influence of Buddhism in this region. Inspite of being the remotest region of India, it is only due to the influence of Buddhism that women of Ladakh not only work in the house and field, but also do business and interact freely with men other than their own relations.
