Lhasa... Potala seen from Red Square


The upper shot is a close up of the upper right portion of the Potala. These were the formal greeting room and private quarters of the present Dalai Lama before his escape. Yes, you can walk through them and view his bed room, meditation room... and previously his bathroom, but this was closed during our visit! We did get to check out his private bathroom at his summer palace, the Norbulingka... see those entries for forbidden proof!
