This is Mongolia - Monastery / Kloster - Erdene Zuu
Das Kloster Erdene Zuu (mongolisch Эрдэнэ Зуу, auch: Erdene Dsu, deutsch: Kostbarer Herr) befindet sich in der zentralen Mongolei, im Öwörchangai-Aimag, vor den Toren der Stadt Charchorin, nahe dem ehemaligen Karakorum, der Hauptstadt des mittelalterlichen Mongolenreiches.
Erdene Zuu war das erste buddhistische Kloster des Buddhismus in der Mongolei. Es wurde 1586 von Abtai Sain Khan, einem Fürsten der Chalcha-Mongolen, gegründet. Benannt ist es nach einem Bild einer Gottheit, das im Kloster aufgestellt war. In der etwa 400 mal 400 Meter großen Klosteranlage lebten über 1000 Mönche.
Die Bauzeit dauerte über 300 Jahre. Zwei Mal, im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert, wurde das Kloster von mandschurischen Eroberern zerstört und in den Jahren 1760 bis 1796 und 1806 bis 1814 wieder auf- und ausgebaut. Innerhalb seiner quadratischen Außenmauer sollen sich auf dem großen Areal im Jahre 1870 etwa 62 Tempel im chinesisch-mongolischen Mischstil befunden haben. Zum Teil besteht Erdene Zuu aus den Steinen der alten Hauptstadt Karakorum.
1937 wurde das Kloster im Zuge stalinistischer Säuberungen zerstört. Von der einstigen Klosteranlage sind heute nur die imposante, von 108 Stupas gekrönte Mauer aus dem 17. Jahrhundert und vier Tempel erhalten.
Erst nach dem politischen Wandel der Mongolischen Volksrepublik in die Mongolei im Jahr 1990 wurde das Kloster wieder in Betrieb genommen. In letzter Zeit wurden einige Gebäude mit erheblichem Aufwand restauriert. Die vollständige Wiederherstellung der Anlage erscheint jedoch in absehbarer Zeit nicht finanzierbar.
Mongolische Archäologen und ein deutsches Team u.a. vom Deutschen Archäologischen Institut untersuchen aktuell den Innenbereich der Klosteranlage nach Hinweisen auf den ehemaligen Khanpalast. Es wird vermutet, dass dieser durch die sowjetisch-mongolische Expedition von Sergej Kiselev in den Jahren 1948/1949 doch nicht, wie bisher angenommen, lokalisiert wurde. Die damaligen Funde wurden nun durch Nachgrabungen in diesem Areal ergänzt und verweisen eher auf die Interpretation, dass man es mit Resten des Tempels des Aufstiegs der Yuan zu tun hat, der ebenfalls außerhalb des Stadtzentrums lag. Die Reste des Khanpalastes werden dagegen an anderer Stelle unter dem Gelände von Erdene Zuu vermutet, was durch weitere Ausgrabungen bestätigt werden soll.

----------
The Erdene Zuu Monastery (Mongolian: Эрдэнэ Зуу) is probably the most ancient surviving Buddhist monastery in Mongolia. It is in Övörkhangai Province, near the town of Kharkhorin and adjacent to the ancient city of Karakorum. It is part of the World Heritage Site entitled Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape.
The Erdene Zuu monastery was built in 1585 by Abtai Sain Khan, upon the (second) introduction of Tibetan Buddhism into Mongolia. Stones from the ruins of Karakorum were used in construction] It is surrounded by a wall featuring 102 stupas. The number 108, being a sacred number in Buddhism, and the number of beads in a Buddhist rosary, was probably envisioned, but never achieved. The monastery temples' wall were painted, and the Chinese-style roof was covered with green tiles. The monastery was damaged by warfare in the 1680s, but was rebuilt in the 18th century and by 1872 had a full 62 temples inside.
In 1939 the Communist leader Khorloogiin Choibalsan had the monastery ruined, as part of a purge[7] that obliterated hundreds of monasteries in Mongolia and killed over ten thousand monks. Three small temples and the external wall with the stupas remained; the temples became museums in 1947. They say that this part of the monastery was spared destruction on account of Joseph Stalin's pressure. One researcher claims that Stalin's pressure was connected to the short visit of US vice president Henry A. Wallace's delegation to Mongolia in 1944
Erdene Zuu was allowed to exist as a museum only; the only functioning monastery in Mongolia was Gandantegchinlen Khiid Monastery in the capital, Ulaanbaatar. However, after the fall of Communism in Mongolia in 1990, the monastery was turned over to the lamas and Erdene Zuu again became a place of worship. Today Erdene Zuu remains an active Buddhist monastery as well as a museum that is open to tourists.
On a hill outside the monastery sits a stone phallus. The phallus is said to restrain the sexual impulses of the monks and ensure their good behavior
