Larima Stone-Slab Village & Zhazong Monastery
拉日马石板藏寨·扎宗寺
A stone-slab Tibetan village and Zhazong Monastery in Larima Town, with houses roofed in shale slabs and open grasslands all around.
The Larima Stone-Slab Tibetan Village lies about 60 km east of Xinlong County town. Local stone slabs cover the roofs and walls of many homes, creating a distinctive village landscape alongside white chortens, prayer flags, and monasteries. Next to the village is Zhazong Monastery, an important local temple. The Larima Grassland, with its broad summer pastures, is nearby, and a round trip with the county town makes a self-drive route of about 125 km. The village is free to visit. When touring the monastery, stay quiet and walk clockwise.
