Taktsang Lhamo Monastery

The monastery complex sits at an elevation of 3,345 meters, featuring traditional Buddhist architecture with detailed murals and statues throughout its buildings.

Established in 1748 after Tala Ngawang Pelzang built a hermitage in 1713, the monastery became a principal center for Kirti lineage teachings.

The temple maintains daily ceremonies where monks perform rituals, study religious texts, and engage in meditation practices following Tibetan Buddhist traditions.

The monastery welcomes visitors year-round, with local guides available to explain the temple layout and proper etiquette for observing religious ceremonies.

Located on the border between Sichuan and Gansu provinces, the monastery shares its location with another temple, creating a dual-monastery settlement.
