It would be interesting to read "Return to Tibet" to compare Harrer's "before" and "after" experienes of this wonderful country. You can only hope that some of its original charm and wonder remains. <br /><br />The Palace is an amazing structure - though it was very striking to hear how the reality of the inside of the building differed from the external impression. <br /><br />However much Tibet has changed, I'd still love to visit.<br /><br />JohnJohn Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03544917163930698029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-56388035395210937632011-04-09T18:09:19.760-07:002011-04-09T18:09:19.760-07:00Hello!

You may have spurred me to action... :-)<br /><br />I've had a beautiful picture of the Potala Palace as the wallpaper on my pc for a long time. Such an amazing structure!<br /><br />-JayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-55879512286775752832011-04-09T10:10:52.019-07:002011-04-09T10:10:52.019-07:00JoV -
