Fully named Damkar Lhundrub Dechen Chokhor Ling, the monastery is located about ten kilometers east of Jiegu Town. Perched on a hillside, its layout resembles the serene posture of Avalokiteśvara, with decorative carvings of eight dragons winding around the base, presenting a solemn and sacred aura.

The monastery traces its origin to the 1st Dumu Qujie Bachadaodai. Following the instruction of his master Dusum Khyenpa, he traveled to the Gyeri mountainous area in Kham to practice Buddhism and build a monastery in the Godtsang Karmo Cave. On his way, he met an elderly local named Bumtar Gronpo, who offered him milk and guided him forward — an auspicious sign.

The cave lies to the east of the Mahavairocana Temple built during Princess Wencheng’s journey to Xizang. Surrounded by precipitous cliffs, it is only accessible to mountain eagles. Upon arrival, Bachadaodai used his spiritual power to chisel holes in the cave wall and hang ritual drums. Since there was no water nearby, he unearthed a water source by retrieving hidden sacred treasures. He devoted himself to the practice of Vajravarahi here and attained enlightenment. An image of Vajravarahi naturally manifested on the cave wall, and his handprints and footprints can still be seen on the rock to this day.
