To the north of the old town, the temple gives in a ruelle that opens on Tuanjie read. It was built in the th century to host the statue of Jowo. It now contains the Akshobya Buddha, reported from Nepal by Brikuti. In 1474, Kounga Döndrup, a disciple of Tsongkhapa, organizes meetings of the lower tantric college (gyu-tö) in the hall. See Jokhang.

Originally Chinese style, it burned and was rebuilt in Tibetan style. It hosts about 500 monks. You can visit it… and you can even run its many prayer mills.

Un temple moins connu, mais très fréquenté par les tibétains. Vu la foule qui s'amasse, beaucoup de patience est nécessaire pour visiter le temple, mais la vue du Jowo en vaut largement la peine. Au milieu de tout ces Tibétains rendant hommage au Bouddha, le sentiment est assez impressionnant

Après la visite de l'intérieur, prenez encore un peu de temps pour faire tourner les moulins à prière sur le kora extérieur.

En sortant, sur la droite de la cour se trouve une chapelle (parfois fermée) aux 1000 lumières... superbe !
