An extensive survey of Bönpo monasteries and temples in Tibet and the Himalayas. The surveys of 223 monasteries and temples are divided into region, with a different author carrying out the surveys in each region: Dondrup Lhagyal surveyed the monasteries in central Tibet (dbus and gtsang). Phuntso Tsering covered mainly the northern plateau, but also Chamdo (chab mdo) as well as the Ngari (mnga' ris) regions. Tsering Thar surveyed the monasteries in Amdo, parts of Kham and Gyelrong (rgyal rong). Charles Ramble later joined by Marietta Kind surveyed the monasteries in Nepal and India.
