Tengboche Monastery or Thyangboche Monastery - Nepal
Tengboche Monastery (or Thyangboche Monastery), also known as Dawa Choling Gompa, in the Tengboche village in Khumjung in the Khumbu region of eastern Nepal is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery of the Sherpa community. Situated at 3,867 metres (12,687 ft), the monastery is the largest gompa in the Khumbu region of Nepal. It was built in 1916 by Lama Gulu with strong links to its mother monastery known as the Rongbuk Monastery in Tibet. In 1934, it was destroyed by an earthquake and was subsequently rebuilt. In 1989, it was destroyed for a second time by a fire and then rebuilt with the help of volunteers and international assistance.
Tengboche monastery is amidst the Sagarmatha National Park (a UNESCO World Heritage Site of outstanding universal value”), draped with a panoramic view of the Himalayan Mountains, including the well-known peaks of Tawache, Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, and Thamserku.
Tengboche is the terminus site of the Sacred Sites Trail Project of the Sagarmatha National Park that attracts large number of tourists for trekking and mountaineering. It is a circular trail that covers 10 monasteries in a clockwise direction terminating in the Tengboche Monastery.
Tengboche Monastery is located on a hill at the confluence of the Dudh Kosi and the Imja Khola rivers. It lies in Khumbu district to the north east of Kathmandu on the Nepal - Tibet border. It is inhabited by sherpas ('sherpa' literally means the easterner) who migrated from Tibet six hundred years ago. The monastery is approached by a mountain trail from Namche, via the nearest airport in Lukla (2,800 metres (9,200 ft)) connecting to Kathmandu.
Its approach is by a hard three days of trekking from Lukla. However, considering acclimatization needs for the high altitude climbing, a four-day trek is generally preferred. This trail crosses initially the Dudh Kosi (3,250 metres (10,660 ft)) river and a further climb leads to the Tengboche monastery at 3,870 metres (12,700 ft) altitude. A downhill trek leads to Devouche, the nunnery. The backdrop to the monastery is provided, particularly during winter, by the shining snow clad peak of Ama Dablam, the tip of the Everest that glows from the Lotse ridge and several other peaks. Tengboche is the mid-way station of the trail to the base camp for the climbers of Mount Everest and other peaks of over 8,000 metres (26,000 ft); all these areas form part of the entire Kumbhu region up to Tibet border with an area of 1,148 square kilometres (443 sq mi) encompassing the Sagarmatha National park. In the Kumbu region of Nepal, the monastery is strategically placed on the way to Everest base camp and thus attracts large number of tourists from all parts of the world. During the spring season, hill slopes around Tengboche are covered with flowering rhododendrons.

Episode 123: Tengboche
The Wheel Keeps On Turning. We did make it to the little town of Tengboche last night and took a tour of the monastery there this morning.
It really is wonderful to get to spend some time in a monastery up here, so far away from the chaotic urban landscape back in Kathmandu. It was a totally different experience than the one we briefly shared at Swayambhunath. Wow, that seems like months ago now!
I'm also pleased that Sonam was able to give everyone a quick tutorial in the Tibetan Wheel of Life. There was a nice painting of The Wheel just inside the monastery. I became quite taken with The Wheel and what it represents when Lobsang explained it to Scott Jacobs and I in Tibet in 2007.
I have never claimed to be an expert in anything that you'll find out here in this unique part of the world. While I do have more experience with the region than your average westerner, by and large I am still discovering and learning about everything as I go. What I have come to completely understand, though, is the value of having a guide who is an expert in the local customs, culture, sights, sounds, smells and tastes.
Traveling through the buddhist Himalayas is unlike anything else I've experienced anywhere else in the world. While the landscape may appear very austere most of the time at altitude, the local cultures have balanced that monotony with an incredibly rich and detailed culture. In fact, I've spent more time reeling from the dizzying complexity of the local beliefs and customs far more than from oxygen deprivation up here!
You can always experience the Himalayas on your own, using only your eyes and your ears and other senses. The mountains will always be beautiful and well worth the effort to come and look at up close. But if you ever really want to try to understand the Himalayas, you need to stop gazing at these high peaks and spend as much time as possible talking with the locals.
Do that long enough and you'll find your gaze change from looking at the mountains, to looking upon the local cultures to looking into yourself.
This outward journey becomes an inward journey.
Do that long enough and you'll come to understand that you may never fully understand this part of the world. But that's OK. Because you're here. And right now, being here is everything.

Lol Haroon tries to get the monks to do kung fu. One of them flirts with him outrageously: maybe after you come to my room, I show you.. lol.
Subhanallah amazing little village. You can see Mount Everest in the background.
Those monks have seriously strong, clean teeth!
