The Namgyal Tsemo Monastery is a Buddhist ashram located in Leh. Built by Ladakh's King Tashi Namgyal in 1430, is a crag-top shrine situated close to Tsemo Castle. It houses a three-levelled golden statue of a futuristic Buddha.
Besides offering mesmerising views in its vicinity, the Namgyal Tsemo Monastery also sites sacred scriptures and artistic watercolour paintings within. The monastery also has sculptures of Alokisteśvara (also known as Padmapani) and Manjushri, both of which are revered elements of the Buddhist faith.
