Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tingmosgang is a fortress in Temisgam village, on the bank of the Indus River in Ladakh, in northwestern India. It is 92 km west of Leh, near Khalatse, and north of the present main road. The town has a palace and the monastery over a hillock. Tingmosgang was built by King Drag-pa-Bum as his capital in the 15th century. It is through his grandson Bhagan that Ladakh's second dynasty originated – Namgyals (Victorious) – which politically endured until the Dogra annexation in 1841 and whose lineage still lives on in the Stok Palace.
