Barkhor Street is a quadrangle-shaped bustling bazaar surround Jokhang Temple

Located in the downtown area of the old Lhasa city, Barkhor Street is a quadrangle-shaped bustling bazaar surround Jokhang Temple.  The street dates back to the year 647, and Jokhang Temple was built by order of Tibet’s first king, Songtsen Gampo.  In order to supervise the slaves, Songtsen Gampo and his ministers moved to Barkhor Street and residing in the area surrounding Jokhang Temple.  Gradually, more and more Buddhist pilgrims came in order to pray and, as a result, Barkhor Street came into being. Numerous Tibetan Buddhists pilgrimages make their way here, holding prayer wheels and chanting prayers and prostrating themselves clockwise around the street at the end of their journey to the sacred Jokhang Temple. Chinatourguide is pleased to offer great service in your China Tours.

The grand scale of Jokhang Temple, which is said to be built by Songtsen Gampo, immediately drew millions of pilgrimages from the area. Those pilgrimages walked a path around the temple and that path is the original Barkhor Street. Now you can still see many pilgrimages walk clockwisely in the street, holding the prayer wheels. They can walk from morning till the night. Some of them move forward body-lengths by body-lengths. Some are only teenagers. Some have traveled thousands of miles before they get to the temple. All they do is to testify their piety to their beliefs, and from their acts, tourists can directly feel the strength of religion.

To sum up, Barkhor Street is a place full of religious atmosphere and a world of exotic articles. If you have been attracted by it, you should go there. Believe your eyes, and you will get a lot of surprise there.

Seat of supreme power for over five centuries (1416-1911), the Forbidden City in Beijing, with its landscaped gardens and many buildings (whose nearly 10,000 rooms contain furniture and works of art), constitutes a priceless testimony to Chinese civilization during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The Imperial Palace of the Qing Dynasty in Shenyang consists of 114 buildings constructed between 1625–26 and 1783. It contains an important library and testifies to the foundation of the last dynasty that ruled China, before it expanded its power to the centre of the country and moved the capital to Beijing. This palace then became auxiliary to the Imperial Palace in Beijing. This remarkable architectural edifice offers important historical testimony to the history of the Qing Dynasty and to the cultural traditions of the Manchu and other tribes in the north of China.
