Across the valley of the Peltang-chu river, Trangu monastery dominates the scenery south of Jyekundo. Visit the monastery, get in touch with the monks, and enjoy the views.
After the Chinese invasion, Trangu Rinpoche fled to India much like the Dalai Lama, and is currently residing in Nepal. His monastery, although just a shade of the original monastery that once held 10,000 lamas, and largely destroyed after the invasion, still sits on a hilltop south of Jyekundo. It is in the process of being rebuilt after 1982, and currently some 250 monks reside here. The interior of the general assembly hall looked impressively colourful, with very tall circular decorative cotton cilinders hanging down from the ceiling. Obviously, I also saw pictures of important lamas, and in the woodwork decorations, recognized some of the main themes of Tibetan Buddhism.
