Inside the Potala Palace - April 2005

Russian Ark this is not. In avoiding detection by security guards, I managed to take this rather jerky and scattershot collection of footage from inside the Potala Palace.

I hope you find it interesting.

@limeybadtooth In general they are not! But very sophisticated, look here in youtube for shwedagon pagoda, and also look for "tibetan temple interior" in google. Buddhism has a long, VERY rich, artistical tradition.

Awesome I know this video is old but its totally enlightening to see what the building is like from inside. I first found out about this building after seeing a monastery based off of its architecture in a video game (Journeyman project 3)

very sneaky of you to smuggle your camera inside, but I admire you for doing it.

Que lástima que no sea el Dalai Lama el que viva en el Potala.
