The hotsprings are about a half hour drive from Drigung Til Monastery. The Tidrum Nunnery and hotsprings is just northwest of the monastery. It has fantastic hot springs in a narrow gorge at the confluence of two streams. This small nunnery is related to Yeshe Tsogyel, the wife of King Trisong Detsen. The Kandro-la, the resident spiritual leader of Tidrum nunnery, is considered a reincarnation of Yeshe Tsogyel.

Concrete free, these hot springs are truly curative and relaxing. Men and women have separate bathrooms for changing. The best part is the fee. If things haven't changed when you go, it's only 5RMB per person to enjoy the hot springs and the nunnery is free. Some nunneries will offer free accommodations in certain circumstances. Whatever you do, don't get rushed by your driver or guide. This is a place to relax, forget about your watch and soak up the healing waters.
