Zhepeng Temple is a Gelu sect Temple of Tibetan Buddhism in China. With Gandan Temple, Sala Temple jointly known as the three major Lhasa temples. Located in the western suburb of Lhasa, under the Gengpiwuzi Mountains. The whole monastery is large in scale, with numerous white buildings spread all over the hillside. It looks like a huge rice pile in the distance, so it is called Zhe Beng. Zhe Beng, Tibetan meaning Miju symbolizes prosperity, Tibetan full name for "auspicious Jimi Ten Squares Zunshengzhou", it is the highest ranking monastery in the Gelug sect. Zhepeng Monastery, located 10 kilometers west of Lhasa, is the largest monastery in Tibet. It is connected with the whole temple and has a huge scale. It has the characteristics of Tibetan religious architecture art. Ticket 50 yuan, no student ticket. Without backpacks, cameras and plain clothes, you can save 50 oceans by swinging in from the room on the right. It's a long way from the gate of Zhepeng Temple to the scenic spot. Before we reached the temple, the clouds were so close that we could touch them from the roof. However, it may also be because of the high altitude reflection, just go to the mountainside and pant. The Chaoqin Hall inside is the largest building of Zhepeng Temple, which can accommodate 67,000 lamas to recite sutras at the same time. On the second floor of the main hall, there is a statue of Qiangba Buddha opened by Zongkaba himself, which is the most precious cultural relic in the temple.

It is still a worth visiting attraction, Lhasa in-depth tour recommended! The first time you come to Lhasa, you will definitely arrange the Potala Palace and Balang Street first. We invited a special professional local Tibetan guy as a tour guide at the door, and the explanation was very exciting.

The tour guide is very caring. The explanation is very detailed, and very patient, and the time rhythm is also very good. In terms of the depth of the explanation, whether it is history, humanities, landscapes and various reasons for Tibetan Buddhism that we cannot penetrate, they are extremely deep, and they do not reject or despise the shallow or intricate questions raised by me, or they are very patient to explain to me. It is hard to be valuable! I am very lucky to see the Fa Society with Gessi and the rainbow in the Sera Temple.

Xizhexuan Temple in Lhasa City is a big temple. It has a special scene in winter. The ticket is 60 yuan. The altitude is about 3,600 meters. From the gate, there are not many tourists from other places. Basically, locals go to visit the Buddha. It just snows. The golden roof of the red wall and yellow wall of the temple after the snow is also a kind of scenery. There are many historical relics in the temple building and palace, which can be well understood about Tibetan Buddhism.
