Don't miss this thousand-year-old cave temple in Lhasa.

👩‍🏫Background information: Zhayeba Monastery was built in the 7th century It is 1,500 years old It is one of the temples built by Songtsen Gampo for his beloved concubine, Princess Mangsa Chizun It was expanded several times Forming the Zhayeba Monastery embedded in the cliff From a distance, the temple looks like it is embedded in the mountain Looking from afar It is a powerful sight 📍Altitude: 4,485 meters One of our companions brought an oxygen tank We recommend you go according to your own situation 🔖About 44 km from downtown Lhasa A round-trip car rental from downtown to the temple costs CNY 300 We met a very good driver this time He was very responsible, punctual, and sincere The price was very reasonable If you need the contact information, please DM me 🎫Tickets: CNY 40 per person There is a simple parking pole at the entrance After buying the ticket, you can enter by lifting the pole 🔖There is a flat area at the entrance of the temple It is a dedicated parking lot There is a prayer wheel next to it After turning the prayer wheel, we walked up the trail We started from the right Later, a kind local told us that we should go from left to right So we don't have to go back 🔖There is a beautiful Buddha statue in the yellow temple in the middle It is magnificent It is very impressive and touching (no photos are allowed in the temple) A monk inside gave me a handful of candy to take away🍬 Thank you🙏 🔖Locals especially recommend The Dharma King Cave where Songtsen Gampo practiced and The Moon Cave where Padmasambhava practiced I hope you can all go there smoothly🙏
