We visited the Tango University for Buddhist Studies. I was told that the monks walk up from the car part in 20 minutes. I took 1 hr 20 min including many stops to recovery. It was a unique experience to sit in a room with over 100, possibly 200 monks chanting. When they graduate theY will be Masters at various monistories.
I was then able to view their temple Buddhas with relics, before retracing our steps down the slope. There is a variety of vegetation on the slopes, including bright red flowering rhododendrons.
