Urgyan Dzong

Urgyan Dzong Information, Kargil, Jammu and Kashmir

Urgyan Dzong is a meditation retreat lying tucked away in an amazing natural montain fortress high up in the Zanskar range. Concealed within is a circular table land with a small monastic establishment at its centre. There are many several caves around and one associated with the visit of Padmasamthara, the patron saint of tibetan Buddhism. The main approach is a foot path laid through the only gap available in the rocky ramparts.
