Samten Choling Buddhist Monastery is located in Ghum and is often referred as the Ghum Monastery. But the old and the original Ghum Monastery is the Yiga Choeling which is another 1km away tucked at the end of a narrow road. Samten Choling is located in Ghum conveniently on the Hill Cart Road some 7km away from the town of Darjeeling. So unless you specifically mention, the cab driver is likely to bring you here saying that this is the Ghum Monastery. Most locals actually call this as the Ghum monastery.
