Hidden in the fold of a valley north of town, this ruined and little-visited monastery is a 7km drive from Gyantse from a turn-off near the Rabse Nunnery. There are ruins all around the site, including what was once the main Drölma Lhakhang; compare it with the black-and-white photos taken of the monastery before it was destroyed. Today there are six Gelugpa monks here.
The central Tsongkhapa statue has a glass plate in his chest, which enshrines an even older image of Tsongkhapa. Look for the old stone carving of Jampa.
