Ladakh existed as an independent western Tibetan Kingdom until 1834 when it was taken over by the rulers of Jammu and Kashmir and became part of India. It has remained though a region where Tibetan Buddhism and the Tibetan way of life continue to flourish. The authors visited in 1974 and focused on the rich traditions of art and architecture. The 11th century monastery of Alchi which has remained practically intact is studied in great detail, as are other later monasteries and forts of religious and historical interest.
