Alchi Chos Khor Temple - Temples of India series

Описание: Alchi Choskor is widely believed as the very first Buddhist temple in Leh Ladakh.

Artists and craftsmen of Buddhist Kashmir decorated the walls with paintings and images under the supervision of Lostava Rinchen Sangpo.

Because of its exterior humble appearance, Alchi escaped attention of invaders from neighboring regions that desecrated and plundered monasteries that were located on the Leh-Srinagar trade route.
