Where is Dragon King Pond?


Dragon King Pond
Originally uploaded by lisasuen.
At the rear of the Potala Palace, a pond was left after the earth was collected for the construction of the palace in the mid-17th century. The Sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso built a three-story octagon pavilion in the middle of the pond and took a rest in it.

The pavilion has the name for a statue of Dragon King in it.
