Tibet Guge 08 Tsaparang 01 Yamantaka Temple Outside  [26 of 45]


The (Yamantaka) temple is opened once a year; there is inside a terrifying deity who must not be disturbed. - Giuseppi Tucci: Secrets of Tibet (September 23, 1933). The Yamantaka (Tib. Dorje Jigje) Temple is a small chapel, left of the path above the Red Temple. The statues have all been destroyed. Like the Chapel of the Prefect, the paintings here are of later origin, central Tibetan in style.
