The Buddhist temple Tuska Lhakhang Monastery is situated close to the Sikkim Secretariat in Gangtok Tashi View Point neighborhood. It offers a wide-angle view of the surroundings and is perched on a hilltop. It was constructed in the nineteenth century by Tashi Namgyal, a former Sikkim ruler. Tuska Rinpoche, a respected lama of the Nyingma branch of Tibetan Buddhism, is the name of the monastery. The monastery is a stunning illustration of conventional Tibetan design. It features a prayer hall with a number of sculptures of Buddhist deities within and is decorated with vibrant paintings. The monastery also has housing accommodations for the monks, a meditation hall, and a library. 

Tuska Lhakhang Monastery is a significant sacred location for Sikkimese Buddhists. Several people go there to offer prayers and seek blessings. The monastery offers a fantastic opportunity to learn about Tibetan culture and architecture and is a well-liked tourist destination. During the year, the monastery observes a number of festivals, including Losar, the Tibetan New Year, and Guru Rinpoche's birthday. Monks conduct traditional dances and give prayers as the monastery is decked with vibrant prayer flags throughout these festivities. 

For anybody visiting Gangtok, Tuska Lhakhang Monastery is a stunning and important attraction. For people who are interested in Buddhism and Tibetan culture, it is a must-visit location because of its gorgeous architecture and extensive history.
