To Lhasa after the third day morning, I deliberately got up early to the Potala Palace pilgrimage. I know I am longing for a long time on the Potala Palace and therefore I feel exceptionally excited.
Lhasa City, the sky is so blue, and cloth from the residence to the Palace on the road, everywhere turning the Tibetans, their faces covered with calm and quiet look, I recall with nostalgia to all this heart is filled with the moving.
Potala Palace to reach the door, I along with the Tibetan pilgrims ladder mounted cloth Palace Palace Palace of the cloth. Fabric Palace opening time is 9 am sharp, Tibetan pilgrims entry tickets for the money as long as 1 yuan RMB, I took from a distant place to the Potala Palace, the pilgrimage piety mood, with Tibetans are also the same as buying a pilgrimage to votes. However, the Tibetans, after the conductor gave me a dress to remind me to buy tourist tickets on the floor, I inquired a bit up the sky! In 2000 the tourist as long as 45 yuan tickets had risen to 70 yuan RMB has. At this point, I really wanted to go to that conductor, said: I am not a tourist, I came to the pilgrimage. But I know say this to no avail. I thought for a moment, made up such an idea: Let religion to call the shots! ! !
Ideas and determination has been, I know what to do in!
Or in a place that sold tickets pilgrimage, I noticed one wearing a purple-red robes prospect of a kindly monk, in his hand a dollar a vote of pilgrimage, as if waiting for someone. I smile approached her hands together to salute Lama: "Master, le (lamas in Tibetan auspicious )!!!" kind and friendly smile at me, and nodded to me Dali. I hesitated a moment, or come to him: "Master, whether the ticket in your hands to sell me?" Lama smiled, pointing to the ticket office, said: "Where can buy that?" I know I ran into a understand the Chinese language Lama, and my heart was very happy thought, or to the monks touched on the truth, my side said, as he took out his wallet, took out a dollar and handed him a smile monks received a dollar of my money, the ticket give me. I took the ticket, did not forget added: "Master, le!!" Lama is more kind of smile.
Potala Palace, the palace door of the red hillside palace, that is, a pilgrimage to buy tickets upstairs, I took a pilgrimage tickets, and excitedly on the floor of the House. Time has passed 9 o'clock, cloth Palace has begun to cut ticket entry, and now this time not a lot of sightseeing tourists, most of them to catch an early pilgrimage to the Tibetans, many people with a family and I come to the pilgrimage. Religion is the daily life of Tibetan people the top priority for them, religion is a happy, also means happiness! ! In the palace entrance platform, I saw a Tibetan family together with cloth Palace in the background of pictures taken, I noticed that no one give them according to this "family portrait." I "sensible" to the forefront, said to them: "Hey, I'll give you photographed it." Whole family laugh. I asked them to excellence: "We all try to be a bit of stuff." Finally, in their cooperation, I successfully photographed a family portrait for them. According to end like after-headed master of my grateful thought, I raised a small-headed master asked: "Can you let me into the Potala Palace with you?" Although there has been a pilgrimage from voting, but take into consideration the clothes I wear are too fashionable, I was afraid he entered the palace when the cloth was denied entry, so to this beauty of Tibetan households master made my request, the owner and his relatives had promised me laugh of this requirement.
I am caught in the middle of this family Tibetan people, and with them lining up and holding a pilgrim waiting to vote in turn ticket to enter. Turn to give me ticket, and the door cloth Palace monk looked suspiciously dressed in casual blue sweater, with jeans me, I composed an air to him, said: "My family and I are together." At this time, moderate tone-headed man of the house, but very strongly to the gatekeepers with the Tibetan monks said a what the gatekeepers of the monks immediately put me into the court. Until now, I shall always remember how I entered all the details of the Potala Palace! Now the details of this still so clear in my mind and moved forward.
So that families of the relatives from entering the latter, I found the master, and shook his hand salute gratitude, and then and that the relatives of families waving goodbye. I think I will never forget this and US-US-Tibetan family.
Potala Palace, thus opening the door for me yet! ! I know I come with a number of trust, there is no binding and worry, and everything is so natural, I like many pilgrims in the fabric of this holy Prayer Palace! ! !
