    Fast Facts

    • Buddhist families here still practice polyandry; a woman will marry into a family of brothers, which has the benefit of keeping the population down and preventing land from being split up.
    • Hilsa is the gateway to Tibet's sacred Mount Kailash, which pilgrims from across faiths have visited for thousands of years. The northern landscape of Humla is part of a sacred Buddhist mandala stretching across hundreds of kilometres.
    • The inhabitants of the three villages of remote Limi Valley are snowed in for six months a year. When the passes open up in spring they head to Tibet to trade their famous wooden bowls for household goods.
    • Snow leopards, though seldom seen, are known to prey on domestic animals, as the stone traps set outside Limi villages testify.
