Lerab Ling is one of the main centres preserving the authentic study and practice of Tibetan Buddhism in Europe.
Located in the South of France, it preserves a natural and calm environment that is beneficial for developing inner tranquillity.

The ‘Aging with the Dharma in Lerab Ling’ project aims to build appropriate accommodation facilities and/or adapt the existing infrastructures in order to allow people aging in Lerab Ling to be autonomous, participate in the spiritual life, and remain integrated in the community for as long as possible.
