The main monastery, one of the largest and best known of Ladakh's monasteries, was built under the patronage of the Ladakhi kingSengge Namgyal (r. c. 1616-1642 CE) with the assistance of the famous Tibetan lama and travelerTaktsang Répa Ngakwang Gyatso (Wylie:stag tshang ras pa ngag dbang rgya mtsho).[2] It was the first to be associated with the Drukpa Lineage and which, under the patronage of the Namgyal family, became very important in Ladakh, functioning as a serious rival to the reformedGelug school.[3] The monasteries in Hanle,Hemis,Chemrey andStakna all belong to the Drukpa school.[4]

Sengge Namgyal died at Hanle on his return from an expedition against theMongols, who had occupiedTsang and were threatening Ladakh.[5]

Outside donations established the Tashi Choeling ("Auspicious Dharma Centre") in 1983 providing support for residentnuns (who numbered 47 in 2003).[6] In a January, 2004 article it is said to have had only 10 residentmonks with 33 coming regularly for prayers.[7]

It is also home to theIndian Astronomical Observatory. The location of both the village and the observatory are highly sensitive due to the close proximity of theTibetan /Chinese border and special permission is needed to visit either by thegovernment of India.[citation needed]Fukche airport is 24 kilometres (15 mi) away andUkdungle is close by.
