Kumbum Jampa Ling monastery
Founding (1560) Prior to 1950 there were 29 Tibetan monasteries, temples and hermitages of the Gelukpa school within Rushar. Before 1958, Kumbum had 3,600 monks. At present, there are 400, as the monastery was affected by the PRC Chinese policies from the late 1950s. The largest and best known being Kumbum Jampaling. Nowadays three of these have reopened with official permission, and eight have done so privately. Among them, Ame Zhidak Lhakhang lies 1 km south of Kumbum, Chesho Ritro Samtenling, a small branch of Kumbum Jampaling, lies 28 km southeast of the county town, while to the northwest are Zurgyi Chokhang (18 km) which contains revered relics of Tsongkhapa, Lasar Gonchung (27 km), and Sertok Gon (43 km).
