We love the structure of the majestic building giving a Tibetan vibes. The area is well maintained and has many beautiful photographs spots . The best time is in the morning or evening but it closes at 5 however if u are already in , u can still stay on a while. Near by there’s shop for costume rental. The best place to take full view of the building is at the lake at the ground . There is a bus 3 yuan that take you to top of the monastery then you can walk your way down. It is a must go. The elevation is 3160m above sea level so walk slowly . Those who can’t go to highland and buy from pharmacy a bottle of oxygen
