Buddha statue & Diskit Monastery - Nubra Valley, Ladakh, Jammu & Kashmir

Quote:
Buddha statue belonging to the Diskit monastery in the Nubra valley of Ladakh (India) inaugurated in 2010.

The Dalai Lama inaugurated a 106-foot-tall Buddha statue during his nine-day visit to the Himalayan region of Ladakh.
The statue of Buddha Maitreya is at a monastery in India's Jammu and Kashmir State. Buddhist monks welcomed the Dalai Lama at the monastery, playing religious musical instruments and drums.
Hundreds of Ladakhi and Tibetan Buddhists attended the sermons by the Dalai Lama.
The statue of Lord Maîtreya Buddha or the future Buddha is the tallest in the Ladakh region, which has a significant population of Buddhist followers.
Built under the leadership of Thiksay Rinpoche of the Diskit monastery, the statue took six years to complete and cost 30 million rupees, or more than 600-thousand dollars.
