Rongbuk Monastery

''Rongbuk Monastery'' (; other spellings include ''Rongpu'', ''Rongphu'', ''Rongphuk'' and ''Rong sbug'' ()), also known as Dzarongpu or Dzarong, is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery of the Nyingma sect in Basum Township,〔Tibetan in Wylie transliteration: ''dpa’ gsum''; 巴松乡〕 Dingri County, in Shigatse Prefecture of the Tibet Autonomous Region in China.
==Location==
Rongbuk monastery lies near the base of the north side of Mount Everest at above sea level, at the end of the Dzakar Chu valley. Rongbuk is claimed to be the highest monastery in the world.〔Palin (2004), p. 145.〕 For Sherpas living on the south slopes of Everest in the Khumbu region of Nepal, Rongbuk Monastery was an important pilgrimage site, accessed in a few days' travel across the Himalaya through the Nangpa La.〔Tenzing Norgay and James Ramsey Ullman, ''Man of Everest'' (1955, also published as ''Tiger of the Snows'')〕 The monastery was also regularly visited by the early expeditions to Mount Everest in the 1920s and 1930s after a five-week journey from Darjeeling in the Indian foothills of the Himalaya. Most past and current expeditions attempting to summit Mount Everest from the north, Tibetan side establish their Base Camp near the tongue of Rongbuk Glacier about south of the Monastery.
Today, the monastery is accessible by road after a two- to three-hour drive from the Friendship Highway from either Shelkar (New Tingri) or Old Tingri. From Rongbuk Monastery, there are dramatic views of the north face of Mount Everest, and one of the first British explorers to see it, John Noel, described it: "Some colossal architect, who built with peaks and valleys, seemed here to have wrought a dramatic prodigy—a hall of grandeur that led to the mountain."〔Noel, J.B.L. ''Through Tibet to Everest'', Hodder & Stoughton, 1927, 1989 edition, p. 136.〕
