Notes :
Although Rinchen marked this assembly on the right bank of Tuul River, L. Dashdorj (born 1918), who lived in this area before becoming a monk of Bogdiin khüree at the age of 8, claims that the monastery stood once on the place, called Bayartiin tokhoi, situated on the left bank of Tuul River. Dashdorj himself showed the monastic area personally to the surveyors. There are no remnants on the area, only some pebbles are visible in two places. As L. Dashdorj showed this area stating that the monastery was situated here, the surveyors accepted it. Thus, most probably it was incorrectly marked on Rinchen`s map. According to L. Dashdorj, two small wooden temples stood here and about 20-30 monks belonged to the assembly. It was founded by Urt Nasan agramba (who was the head monk), who was a monk of Bogdiin khüree or Ulaanbaatar and came here with his novices. L. Dashdorj was a child when the assembly was a child when the assembly was founded. Thus, it was most probably founded in the 1920s. The two main protectors were Damjin and Shanlan (ikh baga sakhius). (Remark: they are the protectors of medical temples). The temples were dedicated to reading prayers (magtaal) or praises and to the wrathful deities (Khangal). The nearby Bayart ovoo situating west of the monastic site was worshipped by the monks of the assembly. Data from the book L. Khench-Yaakhav, Altan Nutag, p. 16. According to this book, the only temple building of Danjaalangiin jas (Bor öndöriin khiid) was used when the sum centre of Bor öndör (later this sum became part of Altanbulag) was founded, and also the two temple buildings of Bayartiin jas were pulled down, delivered there and the material used. According to the same book (p. 19.) the site of this monastery is 10 kms from the sum centre, at Bayartiin tokhoi (near River Tuul). There were two temple building built there, and it was consecrated by Urtnasan gawj and a celebration with ovoo worship was held as well. The 8 stupas of Buddha were erected here, made of stones. Data from the book: L Khench- Yaakhaw, Altan Nutag pp79. According to this book, the site of this monastery is 10 kilometres from the SUM centre and Bayartiin Tokhai. These two temples buildings were built there and it was consecrated by Urtnasan Gawj and a celebration worship with ovoo worship was held as well. The 8 stupas of Buddha were erected here made of stones.
