Drokpa
women set off silver and beaded woolen caps with bouquets of flowers.
A broad collar of alternating strands of coral beads and silver
medallions is worn over heavy, warm goat hair cloaks. Only a few
hundred Drokpa--a pure Aryan race--inhabit the restricted Dah-Hanu
region of the Himalayas.
Beema,
Dah-Hanu District of Ladakh, Jammu & Kashmir
