Rumtek Monastery: Health is the greatest gift. Contentment is the greatest wealth. - Buddha
This place is also known as the Dharmachakra. I visit this place every year since 2010. It teaches me to be positive in every aspect of life. To face situations strongly. Whenever I am back home from the Monastery I am always a changed person, I learn many new things about myself, new ways to serve humanity, to look at every person with equality regardless of their religion, caste or race.
One must try and visit this monastery or any other monastery to learn something good out of our small life.

Indeed a good place to search for inner peace.
So they do not teach anything in specific here, but you are allowed to sit for their prayers and listen to them chanting the mantras and meditating. They have a Nalanda institute in the premises and you can anytime go and ask a monk anything you want to know. They are very down to earth and responsive.

Hello @AashnaSubedar ,
Thank you for sharing this great location and beautiful photos with us.
How many days do you usually spend there? Is there any particular criteria, a registration before admission, or everyone could go there?
Are there any restrictions and rules that one has to abide by once there?

Hey @BorrisS
As i visit this place every year, i spend 2 days at this place. Anyone can enter this place. You have to pay a nominal fee to enter here.
You need to follow some basic rules , no loud music, no chit chatting in the premises. No photography inside the temple and some strict security checking takes place before you enter.
Do visit this place if you are in sikkim.
