Thiksey Monastery, Leh

If you are spiritually inclined or love photography (some areas it’s prohibited) or enjoy old architecture or love colours….this place is a must visit for you. I am a tick in all the above mentioned interests. This place has positive vibes you just sit inside the monastery temple and you will start enjoying the peaceful environment. If you practice meditation. This is the place to do that for hours without any efforts. There are rooms available within and nearby monastery.

A beautiful Monastery near Leh. Must visit for all those who visit Leh. Full of positive vibes and peaceful. The main attraction is the 2 storeyed sitting statue of Maitreya Buddha. One can drive all the way to the top where they have a dedicated parking space. Clean and hygienic toilets can be found at multiple places. There's a cafe and a souvenir store at the entrance. The view from the top is breathtaking.

A beautiful monastery located near Leh. Great View and great architecture. It was not crowded, I believe it has not attracted enough eyeballs to become a commercial tourist spot. But worth a visit for a Art lover.

Serene place . Ancient age old temples and paintings . Huge Buddha statue. Well maintained premises. Friendly monks enthusiastic to tell about the place . View of surrounding is breathtaking. And ice on cake is beautiful sunset seen from this gompa.

One of the most beautiful monasteries I've ever seen. The Maitreyi Buddha was a symbol of calm along with resplendent art and genius architecture. The view of Leh is breathtaking from this Monastery
