Makdhog Buddhist Monastery - Darjeeling District, West Bengal, India

The mak dhog monastery and the Yolmowa Buddhist association have completed 100 years of establishment in the year 2014
The yolmowa Buddhist association was established by our forefathers a century ago for the welfare of the yolmo community living in India.beside working for the upliftment of the yolmo community in India, one of the primary functions of the association has always been the upkeep of the mak dhog monastery

A tranquil site, situated on internal roads of Darjeeling, almost gone unnoticeable if not aware of the surroundings. It has less footfall by tourists and that makes this monastery a catch, just sit in the benches in the courtyard and enjoy the views or gaze at the marvellous structure both inside and outside the structure.

Established in the year 1914, Aloobari Monastery is located some 3km away from Darjeeling Town. The place in which it is located is called Aloobari and hence such name. But the actual name is Yolmowa Mak dhog Monastery or Magdhog Monastery. It's the 2nd oldest monastery in Darjeeling. The monastery contains several images of Gautam Budhha and varied paintings on the wall which are said to be done with grass and herbs. The monastery also preserves several ancient Buddhist manuscripts. A tranquil site, situated on internal roads of Darjeeling. Grand view, scenic beauty and well maintained. Do come and visit it.

Very well maintained and one of the oldest monasteries in Darjeeling. The main deity and attraction of this monastery is Guru Padmasambhava.

A place of worship the old buddhist monastery said to be built in the year 1914 during the time of First world War and for peace. Yolmo people and other people too worship the buddha here and pray for peace and prosperity 🙏 ✨
