Ganden Monastery is attainable on a day trip from
Lhasa. It lies 45km east of Lhasa, on the Sichuan
highway. It is the most dramatically situated of the
main temples near Lhasa, high up on the ridge.
The Ganden Monastery was the first monastery of the
Gelugpa Sect of Tibetan Buddhism (also known as the
Yellow Hat Sect) and remains the power center of
this sect today. It was founded in 1417 and the
successive leaders of this sect have come to be
known as the Ganden Tripa, a post earned through
scholastic achievement. The Dalai Lama is the most
famous member of this sect.
The word "Ganden" means "joy" in Tibetan and is also
the name for the "western heavens" where the
Maitreya Buddha (the Future Buddha) resides.
Ironically, this Monastery was heavily damaged
during Cultural Revolution bombings, making the
place somewhat depressing. However, work is underway
to repair the damaged buildings of the monastery, so
that Ganden Monastery is being quickly restored to
its must-see status as one of Lhasa's most
impressive monasteries. Seek out the Golden Throne
Room of the Dalai Lama. Placed upon the throne,
there is a cloth bag containing his yellow hat that
he left behind in his escape to exile in India.
There are many burial stupas on the grounds of the
Monastery, the most noteworthy of which is the Tomb
of the Tsongkhapa, the founder of the Gelugpa Sect.
The Tsongkhapa's preserved body used to sit
meditatively in the stupa, but the body was
destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. All that
remains today are a few enshrined skull fragments.
How to get there:
Bus service to the Monastery is available from
Barkhor Square at 6:30am. Tickets for the bus can be
purchased at the western corner of the Barkhor
Circuit. The trip takes about two and a half hours
and leaves Ganden to return to Lhasa at 2pm. Tickets
to the Monastery cost RMB8 and RMB16 back from the
Monastery. Alternatively, a Land Cruiser can be
hired for the trip and should cost around RMB400. |
