In Tibet, winter is the season to worship the Buddha. Believers of Tibetan Buddhism from all over Tibet come to Lhasa, turning the prayer wheels around the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple. As the Spring Festival and Tibetan New Year approach, more and more Tibetan have come to Lhasa to pay respect to Buddha.
