Director, I love you ❤️

There are many treasures around Barkhor Street, such as the glazed bridge, also known as Yutuo Bridge, in the lively Yutuo Road. It is said that when Lhasa City only had the Jokhang Temple and the Jokhang Temple, this bridge was the only passage to enter and exit the city. After the changes of the times, the glazed bridge was still retained, but the exterior looked inconspicuous, there was only one word stone monument standing, and the door could not be closed. The driver said that it was already a small Tibetan art and crafts store, which was a bit unexpected.

Lhasa glazed bridge has been integrated with the modern city, once Lhasa's most beautiful traffic road, left to modern people is only that history. The name sounds very fragile, beauty is his beauty. The scenery is so beautiful that it is really impossible to extricate itself.
