LAMA LOBSANG, NATURALIZED

TASHI KYIL MONASTERY
Since BBDC's inception in 2003, Tashi Kyil Monastery has been able to complete construction of a much-needed tube well, guest house, kitchen and dining hall, as well as a beautiful World Peace Stupa, all through the generosity of donors like you. Visit the new Tashi Kyil Monastery page to see photos from Tashi Kyil over the years.
