Dondrubling Monastery

Dondrubling Monastery is literally a peak attraction in Yushu.

It crowns a hill that offers panoramas of Jeykundo city, the prefecture's seat, which was built around the holy site after it was completed in 1398 and-like the temple itself-rebuilt in traditional style following the 2010 quake.

The massive complex hosts red walls, golden rooftops and an even more colorful interior.
