#ChemreyMonastery, #Ladakh 😍 Just 40 kms east of #LehCity, this precarious and powerful gompa dominate its surroundings. ‘Gompa’ means a solitary place, and indeed, if you visit the famous monastery of #Chemrey, tucked magnificently among folds of mountains, you do appreciate the word. Within the gompas are dark prayer halls with centuries-old frescoes often lit by a single lovely shaft of sunshine from a skylight. It is one of a kind experience to go and visit this 16th century old monastery. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9jW72FBzEi/?igshid=16hc1n010q41k
