Gandan Temple is the national key cultural relics protection unit, is the first of the six major monasteries of the Gelug Sect, located at the top of Gongba Mountain, Dazi County, Tibet, 3800 meters above sea level. It contains the spiritual pagoda of the founder of Huang Sect, Master Zongkaba. It is the first monastery of the Gelug Sect established by Master Zongkaba himself. The hillside is steep and winding. Friends who go to the mountain should concentrate on driving safely, and friends who like Tibetan Buddhism. We must go and have a look. We went late. The lamas in the temple were very good. After knocking on the door, let's go in and look at the spiritual pagoda of Master Zongkaba. Thank you very much.

    The scenery is absolutely worth punching in Gandan Temple. It is recommended to stay more time. It is already very good to take pictures outside the temple. The scenery that is not enough, let alone go to the temple to visit.

    Gandan Temple (also known as the Suidan Temple) was personally prepared by Zongkaba, the founder of Tibetan Buddhism Gelu, in 1409 (Zhexuan Temple and Sera Temple were built by Zongkaba disciples), also known as the Mother Temple or the ancestral Temple of Huangjiao. In the 1960s, a catastrophe razed the Gandan Temple, and local villagers successfully hid the statue of Zongkaba, the only cultural relics in the Gandan Temple that have escaped looting, and the building is now newly built after 1980.

    Gandan Temple, located on the south bank of Lhasa River, 3,800 meters above sea level on Wangbori Mountain, about 40 kilometers from Lhasa city. The founder of the Gelu school Zongkaba personally prepared in 1409, and the Zhexuan Temple and Sera Temple are called the "three major temples" in Lhasa. The temple stands on the mountain, composed of more than 50 buildings, spectacular, the beauty of the building is not much to say, the photos below can be confirmed. The altitude here is nearly 200 meters higher than Lhasa, plus there are very few flat ground, walking between the temples needs to climb various stone steps, breathless chest tight is the norm, so the action must be half slower than usual. There are not many tourists in Gandan Temple, there is no crowded flow of people, and it feels very good to visit.
