Lenggu Monastery, also transliterated as Rengo Monastery, is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery at the foot of Ge'nyen Mountain in Sichuan, China. The monastery was formerly known as Kambo Dansar and was the first monastery built by the first Kamapa Duisung Chenpa in 1164. The 7th Kamapa Quzha Qiangcuo enlarged it. At its peak, over 2000 monks studied at the monastery. Today, Lengu is administered as part of Zhamla Township in Litang County, Garze Prefecture, Sichuan.[1]
