八蚌寺的舍利塔景。

 

A view resembled "three elephants playing the water";

The main monastery of palpung monastery was situated on the mountain just as if it was on the back of an elephant.

八蚌寺三象戏水的风水吉象，大殿宛如座于象背上。

 

 

The highest mountain in the back is the so-called Sacred Mountain;

A white spot shown in the picture close to the top on your right hand side is Six Doctrines of Niguma retreat center.
