Gönlung Jampa Ling (Tibetan: དགོན་ལུང་བྱམས་པ་གླིང་།, Wylie: dgon lung byams pa gling; Chinese: 佑宁寺, pinyin: Yòuníng Sì) is a Tibetan Buddhist monastery of Gelug sect in the Huzhu Tu Autonomous County of Qinghai province, China. The monastery was founded in 1604 by Gyeltse Donyo Chokyi Gyatso.[1][2] Gönlung Jampa Ling housed the first Geluk seminary in Northeastern Tibet and was the seat if a number of important, high-ranking lamas including the Changkya and Thuken incarnation lineages.
Gonlung is one of four famous Tibetan monasteries (Chuzang, Serkhog, Jakhyung and Gonlung) in north-east Qinghai, earlier considered as a border area between Tibet and China.
In 1724 the monastery was destroyed by the Manchus during the suppression of Lhazang Khan[clarification needed] (a Mongol Khoshut ruler, killed by Dzungars in 1717), but rebuilt in 1732.[1]
