  • Barkhor Street is a circular street located around the Jokhang Temple and is in the center of Old Lhasa, the oldest street in the city. This is the central place in Tibet for culture, religion, arts and the economy. Tibetans also come to the area often to pray and have been coming to this area for centuries. Many pilgrims enter the area walking by body-lengths along the street clockwise.  In the street there is a bazaar like atmosphere with several stalls set up selling all sorts of artifacts, food and clothes. Traders come here from all over the region to sell their things and try to make a decent living. This is the best bazaar in the country and one can find anything Tibetan that one desires.
