Samstanling Monastery Sumur

A quieter 19th century monastery near Sumur village, known for its murals and peaceful setting.

Samstanling Monastery was founded in 1841 by Lama Tsultim Nima and now houses around fifty monks, standing near Sumur village between Diskit and Panamik. Its Tibetan style architecture and Buddha statues draw fewer crowds than Diskit, making it a calmer stop for those wanting a slower monastery visit. Morning prayer sessions are open to visitors who wish to sit inside briefly.
