Tourist Attraction in Pemayangtse

PEMAYANGTSE MONASTERY - Most visitors coming to Pemayangtse do make it a point to see its monastery. This second oldest monastery of the state (built in 1705) is the main centre for the Nyingamapa sect, a tantrik Buddhist sect founded in the 8th century AD. The sect is popularly known as Red Hat as its followers wear red hats instead of the yellow hat worn by the monks of other monasteries. Traditional frescoes depicting tantrik Buddhist themes decorate the walls of this monastery. The portrayal of Sangthopalri (or heaven) sculpted intricately onwood is an exciting feature of the Pemyangtse monastery. Traditional ascetic dwellings of the monks can be found near the monastery.



SANGACHOLING MONASTERY
- Founded by Lhatsum Chempo in 1697, this is among the largest monasteries in the state. The monastery is located on a ridge over Pemayangtse. The 17th-century clay statues belonging to the Nyingmapa sect, preserved here are among the oldest in the entire state.
