China - Lhasa - The Barhkor & More

Saturday, 27 April 2019

The area around the Jokhang Temple is known as the Barhkor. The main street takes you on a circumnavigation of the temple. It reminded me a lot of the Bodnath Stupa and environs in Kathmandu, Nepal.

The old streets are filled with shops.
More of "old Lhasa".
Yak skulls for sale.
A small park in the middle of Lhasa featured two large gold-colored yak statues.
Sometimes our group dinners seemed more appropriate for "Knights of the Roundtable" in Camelot.
