Who they are
The Matpa are an indigenous community living in the mountain valleys of Bhutan. They communicate in the Chocangacakha language and maintain a traditional way of life shaped by the Himalayan terrain. Their cultural identity is deeply connected to the practices and rituals of Tibetan Buddhism, which guide family decisions, community festivals, and the worldview passed down from generation to generation.
