Budala Palace is the quintessence of the architecture of Tibetan. The main architectures are white and red palaces. The palace wall was made of granites. The palace (Budala Gong) is more than 117 meters in height and 360 in width, occupying a building space of 90 000 square meters including living quarters, temples, funerals stupas and monk dormitories. Potala is composed of White Palace and Red palace. The former is for secular use while the later is for religious. Below is the list of the photos and pictures I took in the Potala Palace.
