Advantages: old buliding with many value information Disadvantages: a little quiet
...if you come to tibet and have a visit if you can not come to sera temple, i think it is a great pity. if you plan to sera monastery, you can get beijing city,chengdu ciy,chongqing city by air from oversea,then can go Lhasa by train.it will take you about 700 RMB to arrive in Lhasa from chengdfu city,or chongqing city.as a new railway to Lhasa is build and opend last year.so it is not so difficult to reach there as before.sera monastery look very beautifull ,it combine the buddhism character and middle part of old china building and have a high historic
the price for tickets is very cheap ,usually there are not too many people here.very quiet,really a good scenery place....

Advantages: one of the greatest palace Disadvantages: lack of oxygen
...in tibet ,one of the best places you should pay a visit is potala palace IN lHASA, this building was built very large ,high ,and capacious. according to the history record,this palace is built for wen cheng prince by a king in tang dynasty .this building combine both tibet character and main plain of china characters.it have a very high value in the history.
if you would like to have a visit ,you can get there by air ,or bu train ,last year ,the trainway from bejing to Lhasa was built.
as the Tibet is very high,so it lack of oxygen,and will make you a hard breath,so must sure you are in good healthy .it is better that you can prapare some medicine.
in tibet ,you can have a wonderful experiences.
so i reconmend it...

...An absolutely beautiful religious site from the outside and inside. After the steep entrance fee and the wait in line to be one of the 750 people allowed to visit in the day it was all worth it. Outside it stands gloriously and its truly a work of art. Holding inside some of Tibets and buddhisms greatest treasures and greatest leaders. The Statues and miniature figures inside are well worth a look as they are some of the most sacred in buddhism. The tombs of the 13th dalai lama are a must see encrusted in priceless tibetan gems and minerals same goes for the stupa there made out of solid gold. When i was there there were many Tibetans and buddhists paying tribute to what i beleive to be on of the best buddist wonder of the world....
