Drepung Monastery Pagoda

The monastery was established in 1416 by Tsong Khapa's disciple Jamyang Qoigyi. From a distance, it appears as a grand heap of rice. This, the name 'Drepung‘, which, in the Tibetan language, means "Collecting Rice." This image is of a pagoda and an alley of prayer wheels leading up to it.
