The 1200-year-old Dhankar Gompa is wedged between rocky spurs at the top of the Dhankar village, with views that inspire euphoria. The lower monastery building has a silver statue of Vajradhara (the Diamond Being), and there's a second prayer hall on the hilltop, with exquisite medieval murals of Sakyamuni, Tsongkhapa and Lama Chodrag.
