Visiting Giao Long Monastery is often the moment when intention becomes real. Many students describe their first visit as a quiet recognition a feeling of coming home to a place they had not yet seen. The purpose of the Site Visit is to offer you a direct experience of the environment where you may soon study, practice, and grow.
You are warmly invited to join any of the scheduled visit events hosted by GLM, or to contact us directly if you wish to visit on your own. In every case, the monastery welcomes you with the gentle hospitality of the Tibetan tradition.
A Space to Feel, Not Just to See
A Site Visit is not a tour in the ordinary sense. Instead, it is an invitation to:
- Walk through the meditation halls in silence,
- Sit by the lake and feel the stillness of the forest,
- Observe the rhythm of daily practice,
- Speak with teachers and resident practitioners,
- and sense whether this is the place where your intention can deepen.
The purpose is not to impress you but to let you listen inwardly.
