Thikse Monastery is a gompa i.e a Tibetan-style monastery that is affiliated with the Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism. It is located on top of a hill in Thiksey approximately 19 kilometers (12 mi) east of Leh. It is noted for its resemblance to the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet and is the largest gompa in central Ladakh, notably containing a separate set of buildings for female renunciates. The monastery is located at an altitude of 3,600 meters or say 11,800 ft above sea level. The climb is difficult for many. There is a beautiful Buddha Statue. The site is very old. There is a good restaurant at the foothill of the monastery, but it offers buffet lunch till 3:00 pm, it also has clean rest rooms Great place to visit.
