Sanglem is the last of the Tri-village after Morshing. The area is steeper than Domkho and Morshing... The famous Lhagyala Gompa is situated in the mountainside, overlooking the valley. It was constructed by Kachen Lama in the 7th century. It is a repository of immense treasure and antiquities of Buddhist Sectarians and plays an important role in the socio-political and religious life of the people of the entire area. The term ‘Lhagyala’ means repository of more than hundred large icons. It is next in position after the Tawang monastery. I've never been there but one day when I visit, I will update with the photos...
