Jokhang
The Jokhang (), also called the Qoikang Monastery, Jokang, Jokhang Temple, Jokhang Monastery or Zuglagkang (; also Tsuklakang), is located on Barkhor Square in Lhasa, the capital city of the country of Tibet. For most Tibetans it is the most sacred and important temple in Tibet. It is in some regards pan-sectarian, but is controlled by the Gelug school. The temple's architectural style is a mixture of Indian vihara design, Tibetan, and Nepalese design.
The Jokhang was founded during the reign of king Songtsän Gampo. According to tradition, the temple was built for the two brides of the king, Princess Wencheng of the Chinese Tang dynasty and Princess Bhrikuti of Nepal. Both wives are said to have brought important Buddhist statues and images from China and Nepal to Tibet as part of their dowries, and they were housed here. Initially, many Nepalese artists worked to construct this temple.
==Location==
The Jokhang temple, considered the "spiritual heart of the city" and most sacred in Tibet is located in the center of an ancient network of Buddhist temples in the Great Temple of Lhasa city and is the focal point of commercial activity in the city with a maze of lanes emerging outwards. It is to the east of the Potala Palace. Barkhor is the market square here in the heart of Lhasa which has the trek path for pilgrims to cicumambulate the Jokham shrine. It is a short 20m minutes walk around the holiest shrine in Tibet. The Barkhor square is marked by four stone ''sankang'' or incense burners, two of which are front of the temple and two at the rear end.
