"The Potala Palace is a group of religious and administrative buildings in Lhasa, the capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region, southwestern China. The palace is sacred in Tibetan Buddhism and once served as the seat of the government of Tibet.” Encyclopedia Britannica, Inc.
I was in Tibet for several days in 1995 and well remember my experiences! I had some bug and did spend half a day in bed. However, I wasn’t going to miss climbing to the top of the of the Palace! I can thank my fellow travelers for their help. They literally pushed me to the top! We scaled 13 stories and climbed 2000 steps to reach an altitude of over 12,000. I submitted this photo here earlier but it has been a long time.
