| Potala palace |
| The Potala is Lhasa's cardinal landmark and a structure that deserves a place as one of the wonders of eastern architecture. It looks best from a distance and it can be viewed and photographed from various places around town. The Potala is a structure of massive proportions, an awe-inspiring place to explore, but still many visitors come away slightly disappointed. Unlike the Jokhang, which huns with activity, the Potala lies dormant like a huge museum. Your first sight of the Potala will be a magical moment that you will remember for a long time. It's hard to take your eyes off the place. |
