The Potala Palace

There isn't much to write about except that its amazing. The monks in the palace were dressed in civilian clothes and looked quite sad. With the Dalai Lama gone I think the house seems quite and empty. The palace towers over the city and is an architectural wonder of the world. At night it glows with green neon light.

Just one of those things you have to go see yourself. And I recommend doing it while the pilgrims are still around.
