Pelkor Chöde monastery is home to the famous Gyantse Kumbum, largest stupa of Tibet. Otherwise, the views from the Thangka wall and the chapels in the assembly hall will keep you busy for a couple of hours.
After entering, I resisted the temptation to continue straight into Gyantse Kumbum, and climbed to the Thangka wall instead. The reddish wall runs all around the ridge of the hill behind the monastery compound. Quite a steep walk quickly took me to the wall, and when I turned around, I was very glad I had come. Below me, I had a great view not only on the Kumbum, but also the straight street leading to Gyantse Dzong or fortress. When I climbed one of the buildings integrated into the wall, I could see on the other side, where I spotted more, obviously much smaller, temples.
