Zhayeba Monastery is a Nyingma (Red Sect) monastery and one of the four major monasteries. It was built in the 7th century AD and has a history of 1500 years. It is one of the practice temples built by Songtsan Gampo of the Tubo Zanpu for his beloved concubine Mansa Chizun Princess. One of its major features is the combination of Dongli Temple and Dong Temple. Different from the surrounding mountain peaks with only a shallow layer of turf, Zayeba is full of natural aura. The pines and cypresses on the mountain are tall and straight, dense and green, and the clear springs and streams are flowing under the mountain. In spring and summer, the mountains are full of flowers, and the birds are singing in unison. The temple of Zayeba is hidden in the cliff, and it is not a scene. There are more than ten existing caves. Among them, Songtsan Gampo Xiufa Cave was built earlier and is located on a cliff in the middle of the mountain. The original cave contains Buddhist shrines, ancient murals and statues of Songtsan Gampo, but the Buddha statues are now destroyed. Temples were built around the cave, and after many repairs and expansions, a famous temple was formed. In the middle of the 8th century, Zanpu Chisong Dezan advocated the promotion of Buddhism, and invited people from India to promote Buddhism. Not far from the Xiufa Cave, there was a bell room with a bronze bell hanging inside. Judging from the gesture, it should be a cultural relic of the Tubo period. The clock is missing today. In the 11th century, the ancient Indian monk Atisha once wrote books and lectures here, and here is his former residence and practice cave.
