Travel Tips for Chambaling Monastery (Camdo Monastery)

Posted by ugfanfan on February 3rd, 2015

1. How to get there?

It takes 20 minutes to get there from the county town by walk, RMB 5 Yuan by Taxi. If by walk, you’d better depart from the square opposite to Changqing Street in Chamdo Town, and then walk 10 minutes up along the stiff mountain road to the gate of Chambaling Monastery.

2. Opening Time: All day

3.Entrance Fee: Free

4. Lamas in the monastery are kind and easy-going. Usually it is not an issue to take pictures with lamas. If rejected, just let it be. If you promise to post pictures to them, do keep the promise. Standing on the Damala Mtn opposite to Chamdo Town, you can choose a good angel to take pictures of the spectacular monastery, the Buddha’ house and Tibetan residential houses surrounded by Ngom Qu River and Tsarchu River.
