Traduk Monastery
|
Traduk Monastery is one of earliest Buddhist temples in Tibetan history. Built in 641 A.D., it is said that King Songtsan Gampo established the temple to suppress the ogress in order to prosper his Kongkom. And later it became the winter palace of King Singtsan Gampo and Princess Wencheng in Shannan. Of all the treasures and relics kept in this monastery, the pearled Tangka - “ Avalokitescara at his rest” is the most remarkable one.
