Noh,[1] also called Üchang or Wujang[2] [3] is a village in the Rutog County, Ngari Prefecture of the Tibet region of China. It is located on the northern bank of the eastern Pangong Lake (Tso Ngombo), watered by the Doma River (Tsanger-schar). The village is now part of the Domar Township.
Noh is described as a temple town by European travellers. It is the only permanently inhabited place on the northern bank of the Pangong Lake.[1] It is frequently referred to in the British records of the Pangong Lake, but the British (and "foreigners" in general) were not generally allowed to visit it.[4] [5]
The state highway S520 called Banying Highway connects Noh with the Khurnak Plain and the Kongka Pass in the Chang Chenmo Valley. The latter is on the Line of Actual Control with India. S520 also connects to the National Highway G219 (Aksai Chin road) in the east.
As of 2009, there are 818 people living in the village.[6] There is also an army base of a border defence company, which is said to have the hard task of defending a long border. According to the Xizang Government, they get along well with each other.[7]
"On the left bank of the river, and between it and the big bluff, stands the village of Noh, called also Odschong, the first permanently inhabited place, as it was also the last, that we encountered in Tibet."
"One [possibility] is the existence (in modern times at least) of a place called Üchang (dBus byang, Chinese Wujiang) at the eastern end of the Panggong Tsho, missed by Vitali.
"there are also said to be wide plains open to the [Pangong] lake in the southern horn [of the lake], at Ruduk in the [south], and at No [Noh] on the [north] side, but these formed in whole or part by the mouths of the lateral valleys opening into the immediate basin of the lake."
"Near the northern shore of this last [lake] is situated the small village of Noh, a short distance up a tributary from the north.... The Champas or Changpas, who spend the winter on the lake at Ote [i.e., the [[Khurnak Plain]]], come from both Noh and Rudok."
