Tashi Yangchan is a cheerful and energetic woman, always seen with a warm smile. She spends her days tending to her fields, growing fresh vegetables that she sometimes sells in Leh. In summer, she collects wild herbs from the mountains, carefully drying them to prepare organic teas that carry the pure taste of Ladakh. Her way of life reflects a close bond with nature and the seasons.
Enjoy wholesome, home-cooked meals using fresh, organic ingredients sourced from the village. Enjoy traditional Ladakhi dishes like skyu, thukpa and butter tea, thoughtfully adapted to suit a range of tastes. She also serves comforting Indian meals like roti, dal, rice and seasonal vegetables.
Breakfast often includes khambir—a hearty Ladakhi bread—paired with salted butter tea and homemade organic butter. If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, please let us know in advance so Yangchan can tailor your meals accordingly.

Adding to its charm, Phyang hosts Cosmohub, where visitors can enjoy unforgettable stargazing under crystal-clear skies and listen to the Folklores of Ladakh.

Guests like to eat our Ladakhi food. They say it is delicious, even when it is prepared by an elderly ama (mother) like me. I always make sure I serve them the cleanest and healthiest food. My husband is a copper artist. When guests leave us, they say ‘Julley’, and hug us. It makes us feel happy.
I became a Mountain Homestay Host in 2018, and I have hosted many travellers since then. Running a homestay has helped me and my family a lot. Not only is the solar set up in our house useful for us, but even travellers prefer to stay in our homestay because of it.
The training we got in astronomy turned out to be a life-changing experience for our village. I felt happy and proud while mapping the position of the planets and sharing the secrets of the universe with the tourists. Tourists told me that even they didn’t know so much about the dark skies!
