It is one of the highest altitude gompas (monasteries) in India, at an altitude of {{convert|4520|m|ft}}, on the edge of a deep canyon and overlooking the town of Kaza, Spiti 4 km to the west.[2][3] It is located on the periphery of the Kibber Wildlife Sanctuary.[4] HistoryIt is one of only two monasteries belonging to the Sakya sect left in Spiti - the other, at Kaza itself, is small and relatively insignificant. It reportedly had 60 monks in 1855.[5] Although it is considered by locals to be very ancient, an examination of the present fortified structure modelled on a Chinese castle, and other circumstantial evidence, makes it likely that it was built early in the 14th century when the Sakyapas rose to power under Mongol patronage.[6] It is thought, however, that there was an earlier Kadampa establishment here founded by Rinchen Zangpo (958-1055 CE) and named Rador-lha.[7] The name, Tangyud, may refer to the Sakya revision of the Tang-rGyud, or the 87 volumes of Tantra treatises which form part of the Tengyur. This was carried out about 1310 CE by a team of scholars under the Sakya lama, Ch'os-Kyi-O'd-zer.[8] The monastery is patronised by the 'Nonos' or local chieftains of Spiti and the monastery has a special cell built into southeastern side for them when they visit.[9][10] Tangyud village is at the foot of the monastery (altitude 4,470 m or 14,665 ft). The monastery itself was apparently badly damaged in the earthquake of 1972.[11] {{Tibetan Buddhism}}GalleryFootnotes1. ^Francke (1914), p. 44. 2. ^Handa (1987), pp. 83-85. 3. ^Kapadia (1999), p. 204. 4. ^ Ecosphere: Spiti eco-livlihoods. 5. ^Handa (1987), p. 131. 6. ^Handa (1987), pp. 83-85. 7. ^Handa (1987), p. 83, n. 36. 8. ^Handa (1987), pp. 83-84. 9. ^Handa (1987), p. 85, plan of monastery. 10. ^Kapadia (1999), pp.37, 39-40; 204. 11. ^ References
