Unfortunately, I didn't learn a lot about the significance of the prayer poles. What I do know is:
- There are four of them each situated at an external corner of the Jokhang Temple complex,
- All are completed wrapped in Tibetan prayer flags and
- It seems necessary for the pilgrims to pass on the outside of them as the circle the temple.
Occasionally, a pilgrim would stop at an individual pole and circle the pole clockwise while praying.
