The kora around Tashilhunpo monastery is probably one of the finest and easiest in Tibet; a great way to see pilgrims and fine views of the monastery and the town.
Still, I continued on the long kora, not going down directly the shortest way back to Tashilhunpo monastery, but continuing on the ridge of the hill towards Shigatse fortress, having a striking resemblance to the Potala palace in Lhasa and looking very new. So new, actually, that workers were still busy finishing the fortress when I came close. The Tashilhunpo kora is special in that there are prayer wheels along the entire circuit. The next morning, I woke up early enough to walk up around sunrise. First of all, it allowed me a great view of the monastery itself, with the first sunrays falling on the golden roofs.
