A large monastery that was built 200 years ago sits on top of the main village of Olangchung Gola. The chief deity at the monastery is Chenrezi (Avalokiteśvara).[2] The Walung people revere the monastery as their shelter from anything untoward. Historically, they would also invite Tibetan monks from Lhasa to provide teaching in this monastery.[2] The language spoken by Walung people is Walungge language, a dialect of Central Tibetan language.[3][1] The primary occupation of the Walung people is trade and herding yaks and dzos.[2] Lhosar and Futuk are the main festivals, which the people celebrate with full pomp and show.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite web| title = Walung| author = | publisher = National Coalition Against Racial Discrimination (Nepal)| date = | accessdate = 2017-02-14| url = http://www.ncard.org.np/categorydetail/walung.html| language = | quote = }} {{Asia-ethno-group-stub}}{{Nepal-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{Cite web| title = Peoples of the Buddhist World: A Christian Prayer Diary| author = Hattaway| first = Paul| publisher = William Carey Library| year = 2004| page = 346| accessdate = 2017-02-14| url = https://books.google.com/books?id=OzEOKNPsv2EC&pg=PA346&lpg=PA346| isbn = 9780878083619| language = | quote = }} 3. ^{{Cite web| title = Walungge| author = | work = Ethnologue| date = | accessdate = 2017-02-14| url = https://www.ethnologue.com/language/ola| language = | quote = Walungge}} 1 : Ethnic groups in Nepal |
