    Today you will visit totally 2 attractions in Lhasa suburb. In the morning, we will arrange you to see Drepung Monastery or Drak Yerpa. Exactly which one of these two will be decided by us. In the afternoon, we will visit Sera Monastery.

    Drepung Monastery was built in 1416 and is the largest monastery of the Gelug Sect. It covers an area of 250,000 square meters.

    Drak Yerpa is a place that has deep meanings in the Tibetan spiritual culture. There is a saying goes like this: "Lhasa is the shrine of Tibet, Drak Yerpa is the shrine of Lhasa. Not seeing Drak Yerpa in Lhasa is just like making a dress without the collar." The entrance to the Yerpa Valley is about 16 km northeast of Lhasa on the northern bank of the Kyichu River. From there, it is another 10 km to the famous ancient meditation caves.

    Sera Monastery is located in the northern suburb of Lhasa City. The monastery was named Sera which means wild rose in the
    Tibetan language, because the hill behind it was covered with wild roses in bloom when the monastery was built. From of
    Mon~ Fri, every afternoon, you ll be able to see monks debating at Sera Monastery.
