Nice place

Beautiful monastery situated at the top of Durpin Dara in Kalimpong. It is the second highest view point in Kalimpong, passes through the Army Cantonment and provides some lovely views. The Durpin monastery is very old and very rich in Buddhist heritage and culture. Cuerently due to Covid 19, the monastery is closed for tourists.

The monastery holds in its reliquary 108 volumes of the Kangyur, as well as other holy books and scrolls that were moved out of Tibet after the Chinese invasion. This place is uniquely spiritual and one can attain mental peace by simply walking around this magnificent structure.On top of the hill sits the Zang Dhok Palri Monastery which was consecrated by the Dalai Lama in 1976.

After a climb of 1 hour from the main Kalimpong market. Finally reaching till the monastery felt like an accomplishment. It was so peaceful to be there. The prayer room was open too. Couldn’t visit the 1st floor though.

Durpin monastery is one of the serene and calm place in entire Kalimpong. Once you enter the premises you will feel the divinity. It is situated a bit away (5-6km) from kalimpong town but the view and cold breeze will justify the journey. The road is bit steep at places but not too much for a nature lover.

Durpin Monestry is pilgrimage Monestry for kalimpoongians. Very beautiful monestry located on Durpin hill. It is Tibetian Monestry with esense of Tibetian culture and tradition. Very beautifully described their culture , stories , philosophy through paintings, colours, sculptures etc.

The most amazing aspect of the Durpin Monastery is that it is situated at the zenith of the Durpin Dara hill. The monastery is extremely beautiful with intricate painting & artistry lining the walls. It is also known as Zang Dhok Palri Monastery. It is home to rare Buddhist manuscripts on Tibetology that were presented by his holiness Dalai Lama in 1956. It offers excellent view of Kalimpong and the Army golf course.

(Translated by Google) Dupin Abbey Also known as Zang Dhok Palri Monastery, it is located on Durpin Dara Mountain. When you enter the monastery, the first thing you will notice is the two large prayer wheels on both sides, and like most Buddhist monasteries, on the wall you will see a row of prayer wheels. Durpin Abbey was built by Hon in 1972. (Original) 杜平修道院 也稱為Zang Dhok Palri修道院，位於Durpin Dara山。當您進入修道院時，您會注意到的第一件事是兩側的兩個大轉經輪，與大多數佛教寺院一樣，在牆上，您會看到一排祈禱輪。Durpin修道院由Hon於1972年建造。

Great place to visit

This place has a calm atmosphere that gives positive vibes to the mind.

Old monastery, but it looks new. Charming scenery. No entry free. The monastery is awesome.

One of the famous and very beautiful monastery in Kalimpong. Also visited inside of the monastery, sat there and listen Buddhist chanting from monks. Very peaceful place and also a very pleasant place.

If you arre planning to visit Kalimpong, you must visit Durpindara Monestry. It is situated near Morgan House within army area. Picturesque place, calm, quiet and beautiful. Attached to it there is a ground which provides you nice view of river, towns down below. You will get shared cab from kalimpong taxi stand to Deep Chowk @Rs. 20 then you can trek to Durpeen Dara Monestry. And if you are staying at Morgan House then you can trek from there itself.

It's a must visit if you're going to Kalimpong. Popularly called as Durpin Monastery, it is one of the largest monasteries in Kalimpong and among the well-known Buddhist monasteries in West Bengal. The Zang Dhok Palri Monastery was established in 1970 by Dudjum Rinpoche and was consecrated by His Holiness Dalai Lama six years later.

Entry into the Monastery is narrow.Car space is small.Surrounding natural beauty is very good.

Well maintained but before going you should check the timing or entry will be closed.

The place is located near the army cantonment. The route goes through the cantt area. The monastery had been shut when we visited in Nov 2021 since March 2020 due to covid restrictions. Still it's nice to see from outside and has a good view of Kalimpong. There is a small canteen near the parking space where they serve tea and snacks

The main attracting part is this monastery is color full and peaceful when I reach there prayer was going on so i didn't enter inside.

It's a quaint place on top of a hill inside the military area in Kalimpong. When I visited this place the young lamas were reciting texts and it had a real holy atmosphere. The view from the courtyard is awesome ...

Even though we missed the opening time for the temple itself, just visiting the grounds and the stupas was a wonderful experience. The day was covered in mist, so the views were limited; one of the pitfalls of visiting in the off season. Nevertheless a must do.

Beautifully located

Durpin Monastery ( located at Durpin Dara Hill: Kalimpong) . It is a religious place and the view from it is magnificent. There are Prayer rooms, meditation hall in this Monastery & the atmosphere is pure & calm .
