Panoramas of Sera Monastery in Tibet
The Courtyard of Zhungpa Regional House (shung pa khang tshan = s001)
(See map below for location and link to interactive map)
The initial view is east, facing a wing of monks' rooms. Pan right, and you will see the southern wing of monks' rooms. Continuing right, you will come upon the yellow kitchen, and in the distance (outside of the courtyard) the yellow walls of the Tsemönling Lama's residence (tshe smon gling bla brang = s002), beneath which is the western entrance to the Zhungpa courtyard. To the right of that is the new temple (white in color and two-stories tall). To the right of that, you see the entrance to the regional house dharma enclosure (chos rwa), filled with trees, and to the right of that (behind the water spigot), the so-called "old temple" that was used by Tantric College monks as a residence when they visited Sera. Instructions: Click on the panorama and, holding down your mouse, move it ("pan") to the left or right. You will see that the image moves in the direction you have selected. You can also zoom in and out using the +/- controls at the bottom of each panorama or the Shift/Ctrl keys on your computer keyboard. If you have zoomed in, you can also make the image move up or down to a certain extent. |
