Founded in early 15th century, Namgyal Tsemo
monastery in Leh in Ladakh is renowned for its three-
storey high solid gold idol of Maitrieya Buddha. Situated
on a mountain top behind the Leh palace, the monastery
offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside,
the gently flowing Indus river and the snowcapped
peaks of Zanskar range.
The gompa was founded by King Tashi Namgyal in 1430
AD who was a big follower of Buddhism. As a mark of his
respect to Buddhism, the king built the monastery above
his palace. Situated at the cliff of Namgyal hill, its
architecture is impressive.
View of Leh from the gompa is breathtaking as the view
changes with light. The monastery is a favourite with
photographers too.
The gompa has assembly hall and temple with frescoes,
paintings and statues of Buddhas. The gold idol of
Maitreya Buddha (future Buddha) is three-storey high.
The monastery is also noted for one-storey high statues
