Rumtek Monastery Pakyong

Heritage

Around 23 kilometers from Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim, India, is where Rumtek Monastery is situated. It is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery. The Dharma Chakra Center is another name for one of Sikkim's biggest and most significant monasteries. 

The monastery was initially constructed by the 9th Karmapa, Wangchuk Dorje, in the 16th century, and it was later reconstructed by his successor, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, in the 1960s. With its vibrant paintings, complex carvings, and magnificent golden stupa, the existing building is an exquisite example of traditional Tibetan architecture.
