Yungdrung Ling, Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Namling County, China.

Yungdrung Ling sits on the banks of the Yarlung Tsangpo River, featuring a two-story main hall supported by 64 columns covering 800 square meters.

The monastery, established in 1834 by Nangton Lawa Gyeltsen, underwent reconstruction in 1982 following the damage sustained during earlier periods of conflict.

The monastery maintains four distinct faculties - Yungdrungling, Kunseling, Kunkhyabling, and Kundragling - dedicated to teaching Bon religious traditions and practices.

Within the central assembly hall, visitors can observe the reliquary stupa of founder Dawa Gyeltshen and experience the daily routines of 60 resident monks.

The monastery specializes in sutra-based disputations, while offering private instruction in Tantra and Dzogchen studies through individual teaching sessions.
