Lamayuru or Yuru Monastery is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Lamayuru, Leh district, Ladakh, India. It is situated on the Srinagar-Leh road, 15 kilometres east of the Fotu La at a height of 3,510 metres. Lamayuru is one of the largest and oldest gompas in Ladakh, with a population of around 150 permanent monks resident. It has, in the past, housed up to 400 monks, many of which are now based in gompas in surrounding villages. Lamayuru is host to two annual masked dance festivals in the second and fifth months of the Tibetan lunar calendar, when all the monks from surrounding gompas gather together to pray.
