Current day Zangla Village has no monastery, only a nunnery. Zangla Palace is sometimes called Zangla Monastery due to a mistake made first probably by Tivadar Duka, biographer of Alexander Csoma de Kőrös, and later by [[Ervin Baktay]], an [[Indologist]] who visited Zangla in 1928 to identify the locations related to Alexander Csoma de Kőrös, and suffering from malaria fever, described Zangla Palace - probably due to the Shrine and some monks living there - as a Monastery.{{Tibetan Buddhism}}<br />
'''Tsazar Monastery''' is a [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] monastery in the village of Tsa-zar, 6 kilometres from [[Zangla]], [[Zanskar]], [[Kargil district]], [[Ladakh]], northern [[India]], formerly part of the Zangla Kingdom.<br />
<br />
Tsazar Monastery is home to a few number of lamas and it has some notable wall paintings.<br />
<br />
The Hungarian scholar [[Sándor Kőrösi Csoma]] edited the first Tibetan-English dictionary while living at Zangla Palace in 1823. The dictionary was published in 1824.<ref>{{citation|author=Lussier, Mark|url=http://www.rc.umd.edu/praxis/buddhism/lussier/lussier.html|title=Enlightenment East and West:An Introduction to Romanticism and Buddhism|publisher=[[Arizona State University]]}}</ref><br />
