Chöling Monastery, Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Daocheng County, China.
The Chöling Monastery stands at an elevation of 4,000 meters, featuring traditional white walls, golden roofs, and ornate wooden carvings throughout its structure.
Founded in 1600, the monastery emerged as a spiritual center during the spread of Buddhism across the Tibetan plateau, becoming a focal point for religious education.
Monks at Chöling Monastery maintain traditional practices through daily meditation sessions, scripture studies, and regular performances of ceremonial music using drums and horns.
Visitors can reach the monastery via a three-hour drive from Daocheng Yading Airport, with guided tours available from March through October.
The monastery houses a collection of ancient Buddhist texts written in gold ink, preserved in a special chamber within the main temple building.
