Designed by Zava Damdin (b.1976- ) and built in consultation with a Mongolian architectural firm, this third temple-library-museum is a combination of Qing Dynasty architecture and Rinpoche’s other design ideas. The extensive exterior paving and walls were constructed by a team of stonemasons from local rock that had been blasted onsite. This photograph is of the main south-facing entrance way. This is the largest new temple to be constructed on the Delgeruun Choira precinct (Delgertsoght, Mongolia).  Photograph courtesy of the Zava Damdin Sutra and Scripture Institute of Mongolia. 4 March 2025.
