Rigzin Wangzhab, 77, has been guarding the site for more than 20 years.

"When I was very young, I was told that the grottoes on the mountain were relics of high research value, so I had been thinking about doing something for them," Rigzin recalled.

It was in 2002 that Rigzin learned of a job vacancy for these cultural relics protection. He applied for the position, strongly believing that the job would be the best way for him to guard the relics.
