Mindrolling Monastery

The Mindrolling monastery in Clement Town, is one of the major monasteries of the Nyingma school in Tibet. It was re-established in India in 1976 and has since gained the reputation of a recognized centre for learning. The monastery is a grand spectacle. Boasting manicured gardens, a looming 185-feet-tall Stupa believed to be the largest in the world, a series of shrine rooms displaying relics and Tibetan art, and to top it off, an impressive 35-metre-high gold Buddha Statue dedicated to the Dalai Lama.
