Founded in 1705, this premier monastery stands on a hilltop ridge at an elevation of 6,840 feet and holds immense historical and spiritual importance as a leading seat of the Nyingma order. Its most celebrated feature is the legendary Zangdok Palri wooden sculpture depicting Guru Rinpoche's celestial palace.
