Dzongkhul Monastery, Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Zanskar tehsil, India.

Dzongkhul Monastery consists of two caves carved into a rock face, with ten stone structures arranged in front of the cave openings. The buildings rise in tiers along the cliff, making use of the natural stone formations to create the dwelling and worship spaces.

Dzongkhul's foundation is attributed to Naropa (956–1041), the Indian yogi and monk of Vikramshila University, who is said to have meditated in one of the two caves around which the gompa was built. It became a flourishing Kagyu meditation centre under the Zanskari yogi Ngawang Tsering (1717–1794). Until about the 1960s some 20 monks lived here, a number that has since dropped.

The monastery belongs to the Drukpa school and keeps images and thankas of famous Drukpa lamas. The painter and scholar Zhadpa Dorje made some of the cave-wall frescoes almost 300 years ago. Its collection holds an ivory image of Samvara, a crystal stupa, and texts of spiritual songs and biographies. The Zongkhul Huchot falls on the 16th and 17th days of the fourth Tibetan month, with no masked dances.

Reaching the monastery requires careful planning due to high elevation and harsh mountain conditions in the region. Visitors should come prepared for extended walks and expect minimal facilities at the site.

The Zongkhul Huchot festival happens during the fourth Tibetan month and notably lacks the masked dances found at other Buddhist celebrations. Instead, the festival emphasizes chanting and prayers that honor the monastery's founder.
