Who they are

The Zhugqu Tibetans inhabit steep valleys and mountains in northwestern China, maintaining centuries-old agricultural and pastoral traditions. Linked to Tibetan culture and the Choni language, they organize their community life around local Buddhist temples and ancestral rites. Isolated by challenging terrain, they preserve their cultural identity without significant contact with the gospel.
