A Tibetan Treasure indeed. One could easily spend a few days here. Our tour had only one day here but my heart definitely longed for more. Hep ori is just a short hike too and should not be missed

An impressive site to visit with a well maintained monastery. It has open plains and a garden surrounding it where you're able to walk around. The monastery was rebuild after the cultural revolution and itself is divided into multiple layers with their own characteristics. Being able to walk here during a prayer makes it more special. Certainly worth the visit.
