The official name is Pethub Stangey Choskor Ling Monastery but it is mainly known by the name of Bakula Rinpoche Khiid. This name refers to its founder: the former Indian ambassador who is also a reincarnated lama. It was founded in 1999 and serves primarily as a centre for Buddhist teaching. |

| In the main temple is a statue of Buddha Shakyamuni, with on his left side Tsongkhapa. In the back on the right side is an image of Gandhi. The main temple seems to be rather closed to tourists. At this moment there is a new building constructed in front of the main temple. |
