Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

The front wall, facing due south, is embellished by a descreet symbolic lintel. The interior of the asymmetric cave is bare except two small niches and larger one big enough to place one volume of the kanjur. Nowadays (November 1991) the cave is misused (1991.11.08) for a latrine immediately above –>Sankhu Cave 3, the Marpa cave..
