Drong Monastery

Drong Monastery

Drong Monastery is the Tibetan seat of Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche's re-incarnation lineage. Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche is the seventh incarnation of the Drikung Kagyü Lama, Gar Drubchen, a Tibetan siddha who founded this monastery in Nakchukha, Central Tibet. Before the Chinese occupation the monastery was residence for 500 monks and lamas but it was later destroyed during the cultural revolution. Currently, the monastery has been partly restored and plans are under way to fully develop this seat to its former state.
