Tibetan Wall Paintings at Durpindara Monastery
The Tibetan Monasteries spread across the Darjeeling Hills a magnificent art galleries featuring old and new Buddhist Paintings. These paintings essentially depicting different facets of Vajrayana Sect are aesthetic pieces of art. Students of Tibetan Paintings should visiting as many monasteries as he or she can. Especially the old Monasteries. I love visiting the monasteries. These photos were taken at the Durpin Dara Monastery situated at Kalimpong. The monastery is not as old as compared to the monasteries in Darjeeling or the one at Pedong but its importance likes in the exquisite art works that it features. The monastery was also consecrated by this Holiness The Dalai Lama himself. The monastery is known as Zang Dhok Palri Monastery in Tibetan.
