The Potala Palace is located in Lhasa,Tibet Autonomous Region,China.It was named after Mount Potala,the abode of Chenresig or Avalokitesvara.The Potala Palace was the chief residence of the Dalai Lama until the 14th Dalai Lama fled to Dharamsala,India,after an invasion and failed uprising in 1959.Today the Potala Palace has been converted into a museum by the Chinese.
The building measures 400 metres east-west and 350 metres north-south,with sloping stone walls averaging 3m thick,and 5m thick at the base,and with copper poured into the foundations to help proof it against earthquakes.Thirteen stories of buildings—containing over 1,000 rooms,10,000 shrines and about 200,000 statues—soar 117 metres on top of Marpo Ri,the "Red Hill",rising more than 300m in total above the valley floor.Tradition has it that the three main hills of Lhasa represent the "Three Protectors of Tibet".Chokpori,just to the south of the Potala,is the soul-mountain of Vajrapani,Pongwari that of Manjushri,and Marpori,the hill on which the Potala stands,represents Chenresig or Avalokiteshvara.
