Located in the quaint village of Tashi Jong, the Tashi Jong Monastery is a vibrant landmark surrounded by picturesque snow-capped mountains and lush landscape. It is a centre of the Drugpa Kagyu tradition of Buddhism and the complex comprises a temple, the Yamantak Retreat Centre that remains closed to the public and the stupa of Khamtrul Rinpoche, a lineage of Buddhism.
