Samye Ling: Part 1 of 2

Founded in 1967, the Samye Ling Centre is located in a peaceful valley on the banks of the River Esk near the town of Lockerbie. It was the first Tibetan Buddhist Centre to have been established in the West.

  1. These pictures were very different to the usual postings and very enjoyable too. Although they depict a different culture from another part of the world, the scenes seem to sit very happily in the surrounding countryside. Different!
