We were lucky to get a rare look at Lhasa, Tibet and in this video we take you to experience one of the most unique cultural experiences in the world. We arrived during the Shoton Festival, joining thousands of pilgrims at Drepung Monastery to witness the unveiling of the Giant Buddha Thangka at dawn. The next day, we stood in awe at the iconic Potala Palace before heading to Norbulingka, where locals gathered for picnics and traditional Tibetan opera. On our final day, we explored Jokhang Temple, the spiritual heart of Tibetan Buddhism, and wandered Barkhor Street, where we discovered incense-making and centuries-old woodblock printing traditions. Lhasa was unlike anywhere we’ve ever been, and this trip gave us a glimpse into Tibetan culture and traditions that we’ll never forget.
