Lhasa in Lhasa – Jokhang Monastery and Barkhor Old Town

“Lhasa” in Lhasa: Jokhang Temple and Barkhor Street

In general, Tibetans consider the 1,300-year-old Jokhang Temple to be the most sacred and important temple in Tibet, even more so than Potala Palace. It is the most popular pilgrimage destination for Tibetan Buddhists all over the world and was listed as UNESCO World heritage site in 2000, as part of the Potala Palace. Located in the center of the old city of Lhasa, the four-story “House of Buddha” temple is best to visit in the morning, as access is limited in the afternoon and there are few visitors. However, during both the day and night there are many visitors who pray in front of the temple, while the real people of Lhasa spend both the beginning and the end of a single day here.
