This Nyingma monastery and shedra (Buddhist college) was founded in 1935 by Dorling Trulku. In the ground-floor chapel there's a statue of Drolma (Tara) inside an amulet that was brought from Tibet, while behind the altar is a collection of black hats used during the annual tsechu, held on the 10th day of the fifth month (around July).
