Danzandarjaa Monastery
Gandandarjaalin Monastery is a small monastery built in the 1990s in Mörön, Khövsgöl Province to replace the original and much larger Mörön Monastery which was destroyed in 1937. The town of Mörön grew around the monastic complex, founded in 1809–11 on the banks of the Delgermörön river. At its height in the early 20th century the monastery was home to 2000 monks.
