Nyingma Buddhist Temple

Nyingmapa Gompa is a Himalayan Buddhist monastery located in Manali. It may be one of the most famous Buddhist pilgrim centers in North India. The tranquil vibe of the shrine also attracts many tourists to it. An enormous statue of Sakyamuni in a sitting meditative posture greets visitors to the place.  The walls are decorated with elaborate paintings using bright colors. The intricate carvings on the columns also catch the eye. The turning prayer wheel, the sublime smell of incense, and soft chanting of prayers instantly bring you to a meditative state. Those who would like to sit and enjoy the calmness are more than welcome to do so. Many spent hours in the shrine and come out feeling energized.
