西藏首座佛寺 
桑耶寺是西藏第一座藏传佛教寺庙，据说这座由莲花生大师亲自主持修建的寺庙得名于一位赞普（国王）的惊呼“桑耶”（出乎意料的意思）。有人形容，在西藏，从寺庙里传出的喇嘛们的念经声悠远飘荡，如同从岁月深处浸润而出的清流，恍然间，仿佛时光缓缓回到从前。 
Samye Monastery is the first temple connected to Tibetan Buddhism,and its construction is said to have been directed by Padmasambhava （the earliest preacher of Tibetan Buddhism）.This temple took its name from a Tibetan king's exclamation: Samye （meaning 'out of expectation'）.As some people describe, the sounds of lamas' recitation of scriptures drift out of the temple like a clear stream flowing from past years.All of a sudden, you felt as if time is drifting slowly back to the past.
