	The village of Koyul is in the ~~valley of~~ Koyul Lungpa, which ~~starts~~ at the ~~Thangliang~~ La ~~pass~~ on ~~the~~ border with Tibet's [[~~Gar~~ County]] and flows northeast ~~to meet the Indus River near [[Fukche]]~~. Koyul is about 8 km away from the junction with the Indus.		The village of Koyul is in the Koyul Lungpa valley, which houses an active river that joins the Indus near [[Fukche]]. The river originates at the twin passes Zulung La and Dilung La on Ladakh's border with Tibet's [[Zanda County]] and flows northeast. Koyul is about 8 km away from the junction with the Indus.{{sfnp\|Bhattacharji\|2012\|loc=Chapter 9}}<ref>[https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/165935872#map=10/32.7644/79.1817 Koyul Lungpa river marked on OpenStreetMap], retrieved 12 September 2021.
