Circle around the street was
(Sun and Moon Tan)
Into Lhasa ago, is to treat the summit of Red Mountain stands the Potala Palace as a symbol of the ancient city. However, been there after, I discovered that the eyes of Buddhists in Tibet, the Jokhang Temple is the real "Golden Temple." Jokhang Temple is located in the center of Lhasa, was built in the mid-7th century AD, was two boat-shaped temple, after the expansion on behalf of several modified to form an area of more than 20,000 square meters today, a large-scale buildings. In the top of the Jokhang Monastery, there are four huge golden dome, were built in the mid-14th century AD and 17th century. Golden Summit rises in Lhasa sky, such as the Bird Dapeng start gold wings, under the brilliant sunshine on the plateau, so that this millennium temple building as a whole appeared to be very spectacular magic. There is a circle street around the Jokhang Temple, which is the well-known, the street, which is turning the traditional Tibetan way.
Get in Terakado, and the air was filled with butter and spices on mixed taste. Buddha Temple is the main body of the Jokhang Temple is the Jokhang Temple in its essence. Hall Princess Wen Cheng from Chang-Zhu Gong brought to the Sakyamuni Buddha, which is the whole of Tibetan Buddhists who converted to center. The reason is called Lhasa Lhasa (God places) and is derived from the statues. Sakyamuni Buddha Hall around 8 Shen Tang, low dark, antique, crisp light-Ming eliminate, reflected on various statues of deities, which is the oldest building Tubo period. Every day, around the Jokhang Temple and the Buddhist worship by turning the endless stream of pilgrims. Many Tibetans are spending their life savings, from 10 million kilometers on foot to come here to worship outside. 求佛followers along the Buddhist temple of the walls lining up one by one in the Buddhas before Koushou Add butter donor and prayers.
In the Jokhang Temple is in front of packed day to come to liturgy and ceremony of the Tibetans, they crawl the site for three thanks to such length knock. Again and again, day after day, so that was raw in the front of the stone is very smooth. Modern pilgrims in general since the body shop under the pad, hand wear cloth cover, call-in-place to sit down and tired, rest and then start from scratch. Buddhist temple outside of pious pilgrims in the clockwise turn through. Along the Jokhang Temple hall a week for small change. Another two in Lhasa, the traditional turning the line: the circle along the street was a "transit"; Lin Kuo Road, a winding along the "big turn" (about 10 kilometers). The three turning the road, all to the Buddha as the center. Out on the foot of the street was too Terakado. Street was he is a commodity street, the street has a criss-cross around the many lanes. Shanghai is not like before the transformation of the old city god temple of the market conditions, peak and visitors crowd the city's buzzing. However, turning on the road "transit" of the pilgrims, which turn a blind eye. I saw shook their solemn focus on turning the barrel forward, or Yin, or chants, can be described as Chu Chen refined.
That street was on everywhere, Tibetan handicrafts of various sizes by turning the cylinder assortment of small objects, filled with Tibetan features. There are old-fashioned jewelry, religious utensils, Tibetan incense, Tibetan boots, Tibetan hats, robes, knives, snuff bottles, bone products and other kinds of daily necessities. Some said to come from India and Nepal of trafficking. Here we used to have an age-old practices: Tibetan providers for their first one day, buyers and collecting assessments, the last one before the buyer to do price comparisons, and use the revenue from the first one buyer and that the money on goods in the stalls tapping several times, that招财进宝. But now, increasingly penetrated the market economy, in the street was on the turn around, see the atmosphere as the mainland bargain counter-offer. How can I have a string of 100 agate necklace prices, stall holders Bong laughed answer is: "150 dollars", but also with me whispered: "Yes my brother from India come with the exchange of goods, therefore, cheaper than the others about her." I Xiao Yun without leave. That is not bargain to retain business. Surprisingly, several asked to go forward, the same thing can actually still go to 25. The hearts of a fun.
