It is situated on the Nyang River, a northern tributary of the Yarlung Tsangpo River.


Kongpo Drula Gonpa is the oldest and largest monastery in the region, founded by KhenChen Dawa Sangpo in 14th centurie. Kongpo Drula KhenChen is the highest Lama of Kongpo tribe.
Kongpo was an area of southeastern Tibet in the premodern period. Tsagong was one of the holy places of Kongpo and still is. Thang Tong Gyalpo, a famous architect and yogi, founded Manmogang Monastery, where the original Samding Dorje Phagmo died. Nearby are the mines from which Thang Tong Gyalpo obtained the iron for some of his bridges.[1]


Old Tsari is now part of the modern county of Lhuntse in the southeast of the Tibet Autonomous Region and including parts of neighboring areas of India, and New Tsari is located farther east.[2]

Mononymous person

Image
Plato, the Greek philosopher, is universally known by a single name. A mononymous person is an individual who is known and addressed by a single name, or mononym. [a] [b] In some cases, that name has been selected by the individual, who may have originally been given a polynym ("multiple name"). In other cases, it has been determined by the custom of the country [c] or by some interested segment. In the case of historical figures, it may be the only one of the individual's names that has survived and is still known today.
