Sera Monastery

Sera Monastery was founded in 1419 by a disciple of Tsongkhapa named Sakya Yeshe. The monastery is famous for its monk debates which take place nearly every day of the week. The monks gather each afternoon to debate Buddhist teachings and philosophy. Though many monasteries across Tibet have debates, Sera Monastery is the best and most popular place to witness it. Today Sera Monastery has around 600 monks.
