Golden Temple, Kodagu

Buddha's haven nestled in nature. Majestic monastery exuding tranquility. Rich cultural experience amidst scenic beauty. A serene pilgrimage for those seeking the wisdom of Buddha in Coorg.

One of the best place to visit in Coorg.
Calm and Quiet place. Really worth for the time. There's main hall where there are three Buddha Statues, then there's another two prayer halls which are also very calm and peaceful. Good spot for meditation. Also there's plenty of Lamas. There's no entry ticket or fees, if you want to donate, there's box.

One of the must visit location in anyone’s coorge trip. Such a calm a d piece full atmosphere. You will be relaxed inside the temple.

There are no charges associated with temple visit. You can see their traditions and Pooja inside and that’s quite interesting.

No words to say about the construction of the temple. Feels like you went out side of India

Serene buddist monastery. Beautiful paintings are there as per Buddhist art. The souvenir shops have beautiful books and artifacts as per Buddhist cult.

New experience! Doubtful if there are forced conversion to monks due to societal influences.

This Monastery is the largest teaching center of the Nyingma lineage of Tibetan Buddhism in the world. Located in Bylakuppe, part of the Mysuru district of the state of Karnataka, the monastery is home to a sangha community of over five thousand lamas  (both monks and nuns), a junior high school named Yeshe Wodsal Sherab Raldri Ling, a religious college (or shedra for both monks and nuns) and hospital.

Namdroling Monastery aka golden temple, is a beautiful and peaceful place located in the Kodagu district of Karnataka, India. Loved the beautiful architecture of this place. There's no entry fee. Parking here costs around 40/-.

Best time to visit in weekday. There are three temples inside this and you can also get stickers of coorg and many other goodluck charms inside the temple.

There are lot of shops around the monastry. If you want to visit all those it may take an hour. Overall it was a very nice experience.

Lovely place, serene and place to visit, pleasure to see the cleanliness, you feel as if you are in Tibet, like the place

Must visit spot in coorg. Perfect for people who need meditation, the ambience is good. It has a very beautiful architecture too. There is also shops nearby selling Tibetan items including the flags, budha statues, incense sticks and many more. No entry fees is required.

After the Chinese took over Tibet, the refugees were settled at Bylkuppe near Kushalnagar and the Buddhist Monastery was re-established here in 1972. It houses over 7,000 monks and students today. The monastery not only attracts large number of young Tibetans seeking enlightenment and education, but also draws huge tourists from all over India and abroad.tibetan monksBylakuppe Tibetan settlement consists of a number of small camps close to each other, and has a lot of monasteries, nunneries. Most famous among them are the large educational institution Sera, the smaller Tashilunpo monastery and Namdroling monastery.

The 40 ft tall golden Buddha statues are the major attractions of Bailkoppa. The statues of Buddha, Padmasambhava, and Amitayus are the notable ones. The walls of the temples and the institutions are decorated with colorful paintings depicting gods and demons from Tibetan Buddhist mythology. The altar is decorated with flowers, candles and incense sticks.

Apart from the calm and peaceful surroundings there are shopping centers near the temples where one can shop for traditional Tibetan items like costumes, statues, carpets, jewelery etc.

Nice place to visit as a tourist. It gives you that calm feeling when you enter. Unlucky couldn't enter the temple this year as it's closed from past 1 year due to COVID19

It's the second largest Tibetan colony in India after Dharamshala. The aura of that place, the calmness would sooth one's mind. One can reach this place by getting down from bus at Koppe and taking an auto directly.

This place is closed due to covid-19 but last time I have visited this place it's fantastic experience of getting to know about new culture I need to showcase the experience to my kids but my bad this temple is closed for public due to covid-19 must visit place in madikeri

Amazing experience one should visit when the prayers are going on
One can see many temples school and area surrounded by monks
Namdorling monestry is called Golden temple.
Very good views of the temple and Aras surrounded, ample parking space,
Nice momos and tibetian food near by

The Tibetans place in coorg.you can find all Buddhist monks here.
It's one of the best attractions while coming to Coorg. It is Buddhist monastery. Place is clean also as you are suppose to keep your sleepers outside the temple.

Such a calm place overall.there's no entry fee.this place has lot's of arts which makes us awestruck.there's no restrictions to look into.and there are lots of monks who actually say about those painting and inscription.

Best time to visit Bylakuppe Buddhist Golden Temple is during the festive season. Various masked dancers in their colourful attires can be seen performing their traditional dances at the main courtyard during festival.

Nice place to visit. Spread over wide area this temple is an absolute delight to the eyes. There is a parking fee which is charged during exit. The art collectible shop has some good collections.

A buddhish temple, calm and quite, aslso hygenic. Cool place for cool minds. Take a mefitation in side if possible, some tibetten stalls are avilable out side for small shopings, coorg spices and hadicrafts available.

Its a very nice place to visit with family and friends, it has different atmosphere with all the monks around.but it is not a significantly big enough to spend a lot of time so it can consume around 3 hours average to completely see it.you are sure to find different kind of items to buy as a gift over here

It's one of the best attractions while coming to Coorg. It's one of the biggest place of world for Buddhist monastery. Place is quiet and calm as it should be. Place is clean also as you are suppose to keep your sleepers outside the temple. The paintings are total eye catcher. Just outside, there are few shops where you can buy souvenirs but they will be on the higher side in price.

Even though I belong to different religion, I believe in faith, I believe in people's heart.we need to saty together, Awesome experience, lively place,
Usually more crowded on holidays

Nothing can ever define the feeling of positivity and spirituality that one can experience at this amazing place. Karnataka Govt had allocated around 3000 acres of land in Bylakuppe to the fleeing population from Tibet. Its one of the largest teaching centers of Buddhism in the world.

I have visited it two times. Once when i was in college and once when i was working in Mysore. The Golden temple was made in the year 1999. It holds several ceremonies thought the year. One can get Buddhist artifacts from the shops nearby. However these are a bit costly. If lucky one can hear the prayers. The pictures drawn in the walls and sculptures are just mind boggling and eye catching.

You need to keep the slippers outside in a designated place. Its well maintained and neat. Keep in mind that this is a spiritual place and dont disturb them a lot.
