Tharwa Chyoling Nunnery

It takes about 1 hour from Ranipawa via Chhyonkhar and 1 and 1/2 hours from Jharkot to reach this Monastery. Since this monastery is situated in deep valley, locals call it the Gompa Dhong Dhong. The original name is Tharwa Chyoling. Tharwa means salvation and Chyoling means area of religion. Originally it was established by a native person Takla Thakuri which got ruined by the earthquake. Present monastery is the renovated form of 40-50 years old monastery. Syangpa Rimpoche, a re-incarnated lama renovated it 5-6 years ago.
