Hanle, also spelt Anle, is a large historic village in the Leh district of the Indian union territory of Ladakh. It is located in the Hanle River valley on an old branch of the ancient Ladakh–Tibet trade route and comprises the six hamlets Bhok, Dhado, Punguk, Khuldo, Naga and Tibetan Refugee habitation. It is the site of the 17th-century Hanle Monastery (gompa) of the Drukpa Kagyu branch of Tibetan Buddhism.
Hanle is the home of Hanle observatory (ISO - Indian Astronomical Observatory), the tenth highest on the list of highest astronomical observatories in the world.
Hanle is located in the valley of the Hanle River, which originates near the Imis La pass at 5,290 m (17,360 ft) high saddle, south of Ukdungle Indian Military base, Zarsar and Tradole peak on the India-Tibet border and joins the Indus River near Nowi and Loma north of Hanle village, close to the town of Nyoma. A road running through the Hanle valley from Loma is the quickest way to reach Hanle from Chushul and Pangong Tso side.
