Potala Palace, LHASA

Entrance to Potala Palace: sorry, no pictures allowed beyond this point.


Not to be outdone by the magnificence of Potala Palace, the Chinese government erected this mammoth tribute to "The People" directly across from the palace. What was once a large, undeveloped field next to a river is not a concrete pavilon complete with a water and lights show correographed to "inspiring" music that goes on into the night - every night.
