Day 6 - Lhasa

The Jokhang Temple is one of the holiest sites in Tibetan Buddhism and, on the day I was there, was a complete madhouse inside. It seems that many of the tour groups are on a similiar schedule so everyone shows up at the same time. The nice thing is that you tend to see the same people over and over again so you begin to feel like you know them. What is it about familiarity? Makes us feel safe, I suppose. In any case, lots of Buddhas in the temple - actually one of the most important ones. Sadly, the wonder of them was a little lost on me. I had Buddha fatigue. This photo is from the roof of the temple which is one of the few spots where picture-taking is allowed.
