Lhasa
Lhasa, the capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region, lies on the Lhasa River's north bank in a valley of the Himalayas. Rising atop Red Mountain at an altitude of 3,700m, the red-and-white Potala Palace once served as the winter home of the Dalai Lama. The palace's rooms, numbering around 1,000, include the Dalai Lama's living quarters, as well as murals, chapels and tombs.
