    A quick stop at The Elgin Mount Pandim Pelling after the monastery is a nice break. The entrance to Dubdi is free, but if you want a guided walk through the older prayer halls you can ask the local guide for a small fee. The best window is around 6:30 a.m. when the mist still clings to the stone, giving the gold leaf a soft glow. This timing also keeps the crowds thin, so you can focus on the early Nyingma murals.
