Eleven handicapped visitors from Netherland finished their trip to Potala Palace in Lhasa, capital of southwest China’s Tibet Autonomous Region, with the help of firefighters to have a fantastic and grateful trip as they expressed.

"We couldn't expect Lhasa with such astounding beauty had we not made this trip. Formerly we got little information about this place, either from TV or books." Hendleron Leake, one of the visitors said, couldn't hide his excitement.

Due to their physical conditions, trips on wheels would always end up with regrets.
