Inner sanctum ambulatory of the Jokhang Barkor Square Lhasa Tibet with a woman in a red hat ALTIB0011
The Jokhang complex in Barkor Square Lhasa is the most revered of all holy structures in Tibet One of the first things the Chinese did on entering Lhasa was to run a tank through the building destroying almost everything that was old and valuable Recently authority has become more tolerant of the old traditions and restoration of the Jokhang has commenced although nothing of its 7th century origins remains
