A Tibetan Buddhist monastery in the foothills of Linnei, Yunlin, also known as Baimashan Puti Temple (白馬山菩提寺). It was founded in 1997 by Mingzhu Rinpoche (明珠仁波切), a Khampa tulku from Muli in western Sichuan who was invited to Taiwan by the ROC government and later served on the Mongolian and Tibetan Affairs Commission. The monastery blends Tibetan, Indian, and Chinese palatial architectural traditions, with a gilded lecture hall, thangka paintings, mandala displays, and a large ceramic mural of the Potala Palace on the rear wall. The 14th Dalai Lama visited in 2001 and inscribed a plaque for the main hall. It is considered the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Taiwan.
