If⁰²⁰⁶The Sichuan-Tibet Highway winds between high mountains and deep valleys, like a grayish-white ribbon, thrown into the folds of the mountains. The wheels rolled over, raising a cloud of dust, which was quickly blown away by the wind. Halfway through the journey, the car suddenly encountered a landslide. The rocks were scattered everywhere, blocking the way. Several Tibetans squatted on the side of the road, their faces dark and their wrinkles frosted. They said nothing, just staring at the pile of rocks, their eyes as calm as if they were used to seeing life and death. The driver got off the car, gestured with them and said a few words, then came back and announced: "You have to wait." While waiting, I looked out the window. The cliff was steep, and occasionally gravel rolled down and fell into the bottomless abyss. On the opposite hillside, several yaks chewed grass slowly, unaware of the plight of mankind. Three hours later, a dilapidated bulldozer came "thumping" and cleared the passage in a few strokes. When the car started again, the sunset had dyed the snow-capped mountains golden. The Tibetans waved their hands, and their figures gradually blurred in the twilight, as if they were part of the mountain. The road continued to extend, and the dangers were always like this.

妙珍88The valley carved out by the Lhasa River is one of the important birthplaces of Tibetan culture and the earliest settlement of Tibetan people. It has a relatively low altitude and beautiful natural scenery along the way.

米勒AND温A guided tour of Jokhang Temple is essential; otherwise, you'll be completely confused. The actual area open to the public is quite small, consisting of just one main hall containing a life-size statue of the 12-year-old Shakyamuni Buddha. When we entered, the monks were gilding it. The guide mentioned that you could also pay 2000 yuan to have the Buddha's robes changed, and removing the old robes would bring blessings. Inside, there's also a mandala similar to the one in the Potala Palace, made of 99% pure gold. This one seems newer, only a few years old, but the gold purity is high; the Potala's is said to be 70% pure. After the tour, you can go up to the second floor where there are chairs to rest and soak up the sun. Perhaps because of the Buddha's radiant light, my heart felt very peaceful at that moment.

136***71The Jokhang Temple, nestled on the north side of Barkhor Street, boasts a golden roof, a blend of Han and Tibetan architecture, gleaming brilliantly in the highland sunlight. Walking slowly along the prayer corridor, the sound of chanting echoes with the melody of wind chimes. The ten large pillars on the ground floor are exquisitely carved, evoking a sense of Tibetan heritage. Within the hall, the Buddha statues are majestic, the butter lamps warm, and a moment of quiet prayer and prayer fades the hustle and bustle, leaving only peace and devotion.
4.3/5云端5341This temple is where locals pray for wealth and make wishes. Every Wednesday, lines form early in the morning, stretching out into the street. Hours: Every Wednesday. (It's also open on weekdays, but less crowded.) Tips: 1. Bring two bottles of wine from the small shop near the temple. 2. Bring some one-yuan coins; if you don't have any, you can exchange them at the entrance for a small difference.

llw68A truly breathtaking performance, a must-see every time I visit Tibet. The actresses playing Princess Wencheng have changed many times, but my sincerity remains constant, haha 😃 I always bring a 50 RMB note with me when I go to Tibet. The "Line 1 and Line 2" part is a major drawback; this trip to the Potala Palace was the worst experience I've ever had.
