Buddhism,
especially the Trans-Himalayan Buddhism from Tibet is the very essence
of living in Ladakh . Partly because of the royal patronage, the
central part of Ladakh has the greatest concentration of major Gompas
or monasteries. From the twelve situated near the Indus River banks, a
must visit is the oldest Lamayuru believed to have been a sacred site
for pre-Buddhist religion known as 'Bon'. Monasteries of Phiyang,
Hemis and Chemrey belong to the Namgyal dynasty period and are a major
attraction during their monastic festivals. The reformist group
monasteries are also well represented in central Ladakh by Thikse,
Likkir, Rhidzong and Spituk.
