| | In the Tibetan language, Lhasa means the Holy Land or the Buddha Land. | | | The splendor and grandeur of the Potala Palace in Lhasa remains a world-famous symbol of the enigmatic power of politics and religion in this region. | | | This is not only because of its remoteness, its high altitude at 3,650 meters (11,975 feet) means limited accessibility, but also because of its impressive heritage of over a thousand years of cultural and spiritual history that has helped to create the romantic and mysterious Tibetan religion. |

| | Although the first half of the Lhasa apso's name is misleading, the second half, derived from the Tibetan word abso, which means longhaired or goatlike, is on the mark. | | | Although the Lhasa apso has flourished in many parts of the world, neither it nor its people enjoy this happy state in their homeland. | | | They are, in ascending order of popularity among the 145 breeds registered by AKC last year: the Tibetan spaniel (106), the Tibetan terrier (90) and the Lhasa apso (31). |

| | A Condensed History on Lhasa Apso, Lovable But Fuzzy |
| | The lhasa Apso was developed in Tibet, where they were developed from a terrier type dog, and their main purpose was guarding the interior of the Tibetan temples. | | | Beginning in the seventh (7th) Century, the Lhasa Apso was bred to look like the lion, and the Lhasa Apso visually looked like the holy lion, which was the symbol of the Buddhist temples. | | | It was believed that they were the reincarnation of the pious lamas (their priests) who did not become Nirvana. |

| | This time it's the story of the race to be first in Lhasa - even though the Tibetans asked no one to come and gave no one permission to enter their country. | | | In an attention grabbing manner, Hopkirk tells the tales of westerner's attempts, in the 19th and early 20th centuries, to reach Lhasa, the spiritual and temporal capital of Tibet. | | | The Tibetans' almost pathological need to be left alone led them to repel anyone from outside shortly after such interlopers crossed the border. |

| | It was built in the 17th century by the 5th Dalai Lama who combined political, military and religious authority thanks to the awe inspiring quasi divine nature of a reincarnated Bodhisattva on one hand and to Mongol military support on the other hand. | | | The beautiful deep sound of the long tibetan trumpet is just fantastic. | | | This power is very impressive but power was not new to Lhasa which had been the capital of a vast empire in the 7th century (just before the introduction of Buddhism) under Songtsen Gampo, 33rd king of the Yarlung Dynasty. |
