Customs and habits in Lhasa:

Lhasa New Town, with Potala Palace and Barkhor Street as the center, Sera Temple in the north and Duilong Deqing County in the west, overlooks the urban area of Lhasa. The post and telecommunications building, news building, Lhasa Hotel, Tibet Hotel and various buildings all over the place are intertwined and glow with new brilliance.

Standing on the top of Potala Palace overlooking the whole city of Lhasa, the whole city of Lhasa is a new building hidden in green trees. Only Barkhor Street is full of flags and mulberry smoke. Here, houses and streets with ethnic styles are densely packed with people from all over Tibetan areas.

Many of them still wear their traditional costumes, and they never seem to leave their prayer wheels and prayer beads, which clearly shows that Buddhism has actually become a way of life.
