Nupchen Namchak Monsatery is the primary monastic seat for all Ewam Namchak centers of theEarly Translation School. On the twenty-eighth day of the second month in an earth rat year from the sexagenary cycle (corresponding to the year 2008), work on the monastery’s foundation began with the rituals to appropriate the site, including the burial of a treasure vase and other articles. Nowadays the entire structure and its contents are complete.
