I feel a little bit pity that we only had 1 hour's visiting time in Potala Palace. We had to join with other tens of people to make up a temporary group and follow the interpreter assigned by the Palace. My private guide could not do any little bit further explaination for me in the Palace but only accompanying me all the time. It is hardly to hear the explainations because of the crowd. I wished that I could spare one more sight on the site I prefer, however, I had to hurry my steps with the group to the exit. I even had no time to take a shot. After that my private guide told me because there were hundreds of tourists vising Potala Palace every day, the administrators have to limit the visiting time for each group. Don't know whether it can be better in the low travel season??
