Image description

The Potala Palace was, until the 1959 Tibetan uprising, the chief residence of the Dalai Lama. The Koku banner adorns the face of the Potala during the Sertreng Ceremony, or the festivities of the Golden Procession of the Assembly of Worship, which takes place on the thirtieth day of the second month.
