Saldang

Saldang is a village in Dolpa District in the Karnali Zone of north-western Nepal.

Saldang lies at an altitude of 3,620 metres (11,880 ft) in the Nankhang Valley, in the historic Tibetan region of Dolpo.

The British tibetologist David Snellgrove wrote in 1967: "Like many other Dolpo villages, Saldang consists of a group of scattered houses built high on an 'alp' well above the gorge.

Payang Town in Shigatse, Tibet, is about 80 kilometres (50 mi) by air northeast of the village.

[6] As of 2019 it has around 80 children from pre-school to sixth year, teaching a curriculum of Nepali, Tibetan and English languages, science, music, dancing, sports and games.
