Interior of stupa 1

lamayuru_cl98_57_01

The Lamayuru chörten contains a chamber measuring c. 2.15 x 2.15 metres. Previously it was a gateway chörten, but today the eastern end (here seen behind the children) is closed by a wall. The paintings on the walls are in bad condition and fragmentary, and only the north and south walls are largely preserved. On the east wall only a few traces of the paintings remain and the west wall is completely void of the original decoration.
