Nambar Nangzel Temple དཔལ་རྣམ་པར་སྣང་མཛད།

This temple is more than 1300 years old and built by the Chinese Princess Wen Cheng who married the famous Tibetan King – Tsongtsen Gampo in the 7th Century A.D. She brought with her the famous Sakyamuni statue and is still venerated today at the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa. Both Princess Wen Cheng and Thrangu Monastery have been the source of inspiration and the catalyst for the spread of Buddhism throughout the Kham province and especially the Karma Kagyu teachings.
