Larung Gar China Buddhist Settlement | Limited Edition of 10
Larung Gar: A Serene Buddhist Village in Red
In the heart of China, nestled within the undulating hills of the Larung Gar Valley, lies the uniquely captivating Tibetan Buddhist settlement of Larung Gar. A small village home to Buddhist monks and nuns, it paints a compelling portrait of tranquility and devotion, brought to life through this photograph. Amidst the serene landscape, thousands of tiny wooden homes are perched on the brink of steep hillsides.
These old weathered homes, more aptly referred to as huts, are cloaked in a vibrant shade of red. In the density of their assembly, they spread across the hilly terrain, forming a visually arresting sea of red. The huts encircle the Larung Gar Buddhist Academy, the core of this settlement. Holding the title of the world's largest Buddhist settlement, Larung Gar is an emblem of devout pursuits and relentless faith.
Larung Gar resides in the remote Sertar region in China, perched at 12,500 feet. Here, the monks brave severe conditions, and their unwavering dedication drives their scholarly endeavors in this secluded part of the world.
This photograph is an artistic interpretation of this spiritual sanctuary. As the photographer, I wanted to capture the striking contrast between the vivid red huts and the tranquil landscape, creating a visual symphony of color and form.
