Samye Monastery, situated in the northern bank of
the Yarlung Tsangpo River, within the boundary of the
Dranang Country, the Samye Monastery was first built
in 779 AD and presided over for being constructed by
Padmasambava (Guru Rimpochhe) and Trisong Detsen, It
is the first monastery allowing tonsured monks to
become real Buddhists. The central chapel is three-storeyed
building with Tibetan style rooms on the ground floor,
Han-style rooms on the middle floor and Indian-style
rooms on the top floor. The whole architectural
construction is grand in scale and unique in style.
Many images and mural paintings are well kept in the
monastery. The bronze bell, the lion carved of
white-jade and the monument of thriving Buddhism in
alliance are the priceless treasures.
