It is know as the oldest Bhutanese monastery in Kalimpong built in 16 century, while the current structure has been repaired.This place is replete with childhood memories of visiting every Sunday with your parents n a must visit for people who were born in Kalimpong but staying away for studies, employment etc. I have sweet memories of visits with my late father n I always used to insist on turing all the prayers wheel available there. 😊It is a two storied structure, with the upper floor housing the main Buddha statue, however since COVID the upper floor is not not open and all pay homage to the New Buddha statue on the ground floor along with seats of the Ripoches.The lower floor has parquet flooring and donation box for the laymen to contribute for the upkeep of the monastery.Earlier the oil lamps used to be burnt in a room located in the first floor next to main alter but the same shifted many years ago to building near by. This has prevented the frescos from getting damaged due oil n smoke.The religious dances or cham. Is also held in the ground in front of thr main building..Please do note the current timing are 6am to 5 pm.Offerings are left near the entrance of the main buildingOm Mane Peme hung

One of the best monasteries in Kalimpong run by Kunzang Lama or better known as Tsethar Rinpoche.Lesser known amongst tourist but very well known is that Tsethar Rinpoche has saved over 3000 animals and fishes from slaughter.Any one going to Kalimpong should go to this beautiful monastery and seek an audience with this mild but highly compassionate Rinpoche and donate so that the good work could be expanded further.The murals are also breathtaking!!!
