It is a monastery housing 100 + monks. New and beautiful, about 12 km from Rabong La by road. The structure looks similar to well known Rumtek monastery. The monastery underwent reconstruction in 1975-1981 and in 1995, a new monastery, known as Palchen Choeling Monastic Institute was built by the 12th Gyaltsab Rinpoche, which retained its Tibetan architecture.
