GARTOK

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 480 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: GAG-GEO
GARTOK , a
trade
 -market of Tibet, situated on the bank of the Indus on the road between Shigatse and Leh, to the
east
  of
Simla
 . In accordance with the Tibet treaty of 1904, Gartok, together with
Yatung
  and
Gyantse
 , was thrown open to British
trade
 . On the return of the column from
Lhasa
  in that year Gartok was visited by a party under Captain
Ryder
 , who found only a few dozen
people
  in winter quarters, their houses being in the midst of a
bare
  plain. In summer, however, all the trade between Tibet and Ladakh passes through this
place
 .
