Prior to 1950 (Cultural Revolution) there were 29 Tibetan monasteries, temples and hermitages of the Gelukpa school within Rushar, the largest and best known being Kumbum Jampaling. Nowadays three of these have reopened with officil permission, and eight have done so privately. Among them, Ame Zhidak Lhakhang lies 1 km south of Kumbum, Chesho Ritro Samtenling, a small branch of Kumbum Jampaling, lies 28 km southeast of the county town, while to the northwest are Zurgyi Chokhang (18 km) which contains revered relics of Tsongkhapa, Lasar Gonchung (27 km), and Sertok Gon (43 km).

Kumbum Jampa Ling is a very spiritual place for Tibetans…and very important. It is the birthplace (1357) of Tsongkhapa the founder of the Gelugpa yellow hat sect and also near the home of the current Dalai Lama and where he studied for several years. Today Kumbum has 4 monastic colleges and around 400 monks in residence…mostly students from the Amdo and Mongolian areas. There are about 30 temples and hundreds of small brick and mud houses for the monks and students. The holiest place is the birthplace of Tsongkapa which is covered by a gold roof monastery.

Tibetan reed shawm or oboe (Tib. rgya gling/ saying "gyaling" རྒྱ་གླིང༌). This shawm is made from a hardwood bore, such as teak or black rosewood. It is highly decorated with an eloborate, gilded copper, bel-shaped trumpet end, and a reed mouthpiece with a small resonator made of beaten metal. Its wooden bore has six or seven holes with an upper back-hole for the thumb, similar to the Western recorder. however, unlike the Western recorder or oboe, it is played with the hands reversed, the left hand fingering the lower notes and the right hand the upper.
The Tibetan oboe or gya gling derives from the north Indian shenai, which in turn is of Arabic origin. The gya gling has a variable pitched tuning, and is very difficult instrument to master. Like the long horns (dung chen) and the short horns (kang gling), the gya gling are always played in pairs.
