Jomda

Jomda lies in the mountainous country of eastern Tibet, where valleys and high ridges shape the landscape of Kham. It belongs to a region celebrated for its Tibetan musical dramas and its religious traditions. Communities here maintained monasteries of several schools, including the Sakya tradition. Across the surrounding mountains, the country of Jomda formed part of the wider world of eastern Tibetan principalities, including the kingdom of Degé.
