Barkhor, where Friends of Tibet meet

h2g2 Friends of Tibet

The Barkhor is the old market district of Tibet's capital, Lhasa. It is probably older than the city iself. Just like markets anywhere, the Barkhor was as much a meeting place, a place to exchange news and gossip, as it was a place to trade goods.
