Lhasa

The Potala palace was the Dalai Lama's home till 1959,
He had to escape from Tibet, for not being killed by the Chinese.
Today the Potala, restored by the Chinese,
is visited by fat tourist groups coming directly by plane from Peking...

To celebrate the Dalai Lama birthday ,
Tibetan people of Lhasa organised a big pic-nic.
Throwing themselves some barley flour
which symbolises a gift to their god.
