Dolpo people
The Dolpo people are an ethnic group residing in the remote Dolpo region of Nepal. They primarily speak the Tibetan language and practice a form of Tibetan Buddhism, which influences their daily life and cultural traditions. The Dolpo region is known for its rugged terrain and high-altitude landscapes, making it one of the least populated areas in Nepal.
Traditionally, the Dolpo people engage in agriculture and animal husbandry, relying on crops like barley and potatoes, as well as livestock such as yaks and sheep. Their unique lifestyle is shaped by the harsh climate and isolation, leading to a rich cultural heritage that includes traditional music, dance, and festivals.
