The most sacred of sacred buildings in Tibet, the Jokhang is like a beehive with devout Tibetans flowing in and out, a magnet drawing pilgrims from the remotest areas of the country.
I was impatiently waiting to enter the temple in the morning, and it opened late. The queue of Tibetans was absorbed by the temple, and even though I joined them right away, by the time I had bought my ticket, the ground floor of the temple was basically a large mass of Tibetans waiting to enter the most sacred chapels. I decided to move to the first floor, which was in fact more quiet. The chapels housed statues of kings, important lamas and other objects of religious importance. In all, I found the inevitable large bowls of yak butter, burning and being replenished by pilgrims, giving the entire temple a distinct smell. I wanted some fresh air, and walked the Narkhor kora, the circuit around the Jokhang temple proper. The early morning daylight coming in from above gave great views of the Tibetans walking around here. After that, I went up; the roof offered great views over Barkhor square as well as the Potala Palace, and also a unique chance to view Tibetans on their kora from above. The Jokhang: an unforgettable experience, oozing religious significance also to non-religious visitors.
