Palkhor Lamasery

The area around Gyantse's main chorten is called Palkhor Lamasery. And it lied in ruins. The old monastery walls are still there but apparently, ages ago there were all kinds of buildings within the walls that have disappeared. Buddha knows why.

I love the way the wall runs along the large hill.
