Rigzin Gatsal Guest House

Rigzin Gatsal, formerly known as the pool house, has been undergoing renovation and expansion and will serve as a guest house. As the following photos show, the new extension has been framed and wrapped and work has begun on the interior space. Equipped with radiant heat flooring, spacious cathedral ceilings, air conditioning and lovely hillside views, Rigzin Gatsal will provide a private and comfortable space for visiting teachers and other eminent guests, most notably those traveling to Lotus Garden for the Nyingthig Yabzhi in 2010.
