Sera Monastery; 色拉寺; Tibetan: སེ་ར (sera); Wylie: se ra;

Sera Monastery is one of the three great Gelug university monasteries. It is located 2 km north of Lhasa. It was founded in 1419 by Sakya Yeshe, a disciple of Je Tsongkhapa. The name Sera came from the wild roses (« sera » in Tibetan) that covered the hill behind the monastery.

Sera has developed over the centuries into a renowned Buddhist institution with 19 hermitages and four nunneries. Sera Me Tratsang is the oldest college within Sera. Sera Je College is the largest college in Sera. It has a famous Hayagriva statute, considered the protective deity of the monastery.

A parallel Sera has been established in Mysore, India, with more than 3,000 monks.

色拉寺是格魯派三大大學寺之一，位於拉薩市以北2公里處。它是宗喀巴大師弟子薩迦耶喜於1419年創立。色拉之名來自於覆蓋在寺後山上的野玫瑰。

經過數個世紀的發展，色拉寺已成為著名的佛教學府，擁有19個隱修處和四個尼姑寺廟。色拉寺中最古老的學院是色拉美紮堂，而色拉哲學學院是其中最大的學院，它有一尊著名的馬頭明王像，為寺廟的守護神。

在印度邁索爾市也建立了一個與之相似的色拉寺，有超過3,000名僧侶。
