Drepung Monastery was the world's largest monastery that ever housed over 10,000 monks, also the highest-ranking monastery in the Gelug Sect. Drepung means Rice Heaps in the Tibetan language and the whole monastery does look like rice heaps in the distance. https://www.greattibettour.com/tibet-tour/nyingchi-bomi-lhasa
