The amusing name means a three-storied building, but Sumtseg is only two storied. Although the building from outside reflects Tibetan culture, the intricate woodworks, clay work, facades and all the paintings inside have Kashmiri handwork. Three images of Bodhisattvas are depicted by the niches, all about 13ft in height, along with four associated secondary deity, and two flying goddesses for each niche.
