Konchogsum Lhakhang
དཀོན་མཆོག་གསུམ་ལྷ་ཁང
An ancient temple beside Tamshing Lhakhang, traditionally dated to the 6th–7th centuries. It is famous for a great bell that Pema Lingpa discovered and a three-story hall rebuilt in the 1990s.
Konchogsum Lhakhang lies a few hundred meters south of Tamshing Lhakhang. Legend traces its origins to the Tibetan imperial period, and it was later restored by Pema Lingpa. The temple once housed a great bell said to be audible in Lhasa when struck. The hall was rebuilt after a fire in 2010. Visitors are few, so it's a good stop on the way. Visiting it together with Tamshing Lhakhang takes about an hour.
