This VDC is mainly inhaited by limbu an Mongolian descendant, more specifically Angbuhang, an indigenous tribe. This VDC is popular in producing cash crop orange, cardamom and tobacco. West/south to North/east orientation of land and south facing slope has provided opportunity to get more sunny hours. Change has the popular hiking route (now being introduced as a rhododendron hiking trail) Taplejung-Gorja-Basantapur, which passes from the middle along its length.
