One of the numerous sites we visited was the Jokhang Monastery, located in the center of the city and one of the most sacred sites for Tibetan Buddhism. These three pictures were taken on our visit to the Monastery and we walked around the area several times while we were in Lhasa.
On Saturday evening, February 17th, 2018, a fire caused some damage to the Monastery. This story was posted on BBC News.
Just another blow to the cultural identity of the beleaguered Tibetans in that country.
