Chitkul

Chitkul, the last populated village on the Indo-Tibetan border, is located on the bank of the River Baspa. It is India’s last point before one can fly without a permit. The village is a great refuge for travelers looking for a break from crowd and disorder, and transforming into a great paradise for the region’s sparse population. Chitkul’s key attractions are its houses that either have slate or wooden plank roofs. There is also a small Buddhist Temple and a small tower in it. There is a monastery called Kagyupa Temple where a Shakyamuni Buddha age-old image is adorned.
