Barkhor Street, a well-known tourist attraction in Tibet, is considered a pilgrimage by Tibetans. It was a single circumambulation road around the Jokhang Temple in the past and has now been expanded into Lhasa's commercial center.
As the symbol of Lhasa, it's a must-see for travellers seeking to know the city's history, architecture, industry, culture, economy and religion.
