The Xialu Monastery is located in Rikuozuo. Its construction was begun in the year 1,000, and its architecture is a typical combination of Tibetan and Chinese styles with archways, carved pillars, tiled roofs, and Song and Yuan style murals. In addition to the various statues of Buddha, it has four other treasures of inestimable value. The first is a scripture printing board carved out of sandalwood.

The second is a copper jar for holy water. (It is said that the water is changed every 12 years, but that the quantity and quality of the water do not change even if the water has been in the jar for 12 years. The third is a stone basin which is said to have been used by Shaja Banzhida. The fourth is a stone board with the six-character principle engraved on tin. On each of the four corners of the board is also engraved a pagoda. It is said that this board was unearthed when the construction of the monastery first started.
