Description
Located in Lhasa, Tibet Autonomous Region of China, the Potala Palace is a palace complex of great historical, religious and cultural value. It was built in the 7th century A.D. and has been expanded over the years to become the winter palace of the Tibetan king and an important centre of Buddhism in Tibet. The Potala Palace is not only the most famous landmark and tourist attraction in Tibet, but also an important place for religious activities.
As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the protection and conservation of the Potala Palace meets the requirements of SDG 11.4, which is to strengthen the protection and conservation of global cultural and natural heritage. The conservation of the Potala Palace concerns not only the building itself and the artefacts contained therein, but also its historical documents and the cultural activities associated with it, which are important components of cultural heritage.
