Above the main prayer hall stands Tara, the Gompa's key deity. The deity stands as Dukkar, a 1000-armed form with equal number of heads and is also known as 'Lady of the White Parasol'. The Gompa has a dazzling collection of tiny statues of pure gold and a number of moving paintings. A library is also placed within the complex of the monastery. Sankar Gompa is open for public viewing from 7.00 AM to 10.00 AM and again from 17.00 PM to 19.00 PM. This article is a stub. You can enrich by adding more information to it.
