Come to Lhasa and truly understand Barkhor Street

When you come to Lhasa, don’t just rush to the Potala Palace! Barkhor Street is where the soul of Tibet lies✨

In the early morning, follow the clockwise flow of pilgrims; the stone pavement is polished shiny, with the gentle sound of prayer wheels and chanting blending in your ears. The yellow house on the southeast corner is incredibly photogenic, and traditional Tibetan clothing against the backlight creates breathtaking shadows.

When you get tired of walking, step into Guangminggang Qiong Sweet Tea House, where a cup of sweet tea costs just 1 yuan and pairs perfectly with Tibetan noodles, instantly warming you up. The corner of Magi Ami hides stories, and every casual shot feels like a scene from a movie.

Tips: Remember to ask permission before photographing devotees and wear comfortable shoes! Here, the mingling scents of burning juniper and tea accompany you, and every step is a gift of time.
