From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dehra Compass or Dehra Kompas (迪拉村) is the location of a historical caravan campsite in Aksai Chin. It is under Chinese control and claimed by India. Historically, the camp was used by caravans journeying between the Indian subcontinent and Tarim Basin. It was traversed by European explorers during the 1800s.[1] At one point, there were stone shelters constructed at this location to facilitate camping.[2]
