The thirteen floors of the palace complex measure three hundred and fifty metres long and a hundred and seventeen metres high.

The Dalai Lama's winter residence is situated higher than any other palace in the world and for those who have walked the arduous ascent to the top, a fascinating insight into the past life of this revered religious leader, awaits.
