About 1/3rd of the lake is under Indian occupation and remaining under China. The Chinese border is just beyond the mountains across the lake. Spangmik, 7 km along the southern shore from the head of the lake is the farthest point to which foreigners are permitted. There are spectacular views of the mountains of Chang Chenmo range to the north and their shimmering reflection in the ever-changing blues and greens of the lake’s brackish waters is breathtaking. Above Spangmik are the glaciers and snow-capped peaks of the Pangong range. Spangmik and other scattered small villages along the southern shore of the lake are the summer homes of the sparsely populated Chang-pa, semi-nomadic herders from Tibet and southeast Ladakh. Pangong Chang-pa barely cultivated sparse crops and peas in summer. During the winter they pack up their camp (rebo) and take their flocks of sheep. And the Pashmina goats go to distant pastures.)
