[[Indian religions]] (also known as Dharmic religions) are the religions that originated in the Indian subcontinent; namely [[Hinduism]], [[Jainism]], [[Buddhism]] and [[Sikhism]].<ref name="EB">Adams, C.

Later [[Sindh]], [[Balochistan (Pakistan)|Balochistan]], and parts of the [[Punjab region]] saw conquest by the [[Ummayad|Arab caliphates]] along with an influx of Muslims from Persia and Central Asia, which resulted in spread of both Shia and Sunni Islam in parts of northwestern region of South Asia. Subsequently, under the influence of Muslim rulers of the Islamic sultanates and the Mughal Empire, Islam spread in South Asia.<ref>Alberts, Irving, T., . D. R. M. (2013).

== History ==<br />
{{Main|Religion in India#History}}<br />
<br />
=== Ancient period ===<br />
South Asia was primarily Hindu in ancient times. [[Buddhism]] appeared around 500 BCE.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Buddhism - Definition, Founder & Origins |url=https://www.history.com/topics/religion/buddhism |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=HISTORY |language=en}}</ref><br />
<br />
Christianity and Islam made an appearance in [[Kerala]] during this time period; [[Thomas the Apostle|Saint Thomas]] is believed to have travelled to Kerala soon after the death of Jesus and converted some people,<ref>{{Cite web |last=Magazine |first=Smithsonian |last2=Zacharia |first2=Lynn Johnson,Paul |title=The Surprisingly Early History of Christianity in India |url=https://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/how-christianity-came-to-india-kerala-180958117/ |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=Smithsonian Magazine |language=en}}</ref> while the first mosque to be built in India was built during the Islamic prophet Muhammad's lifetime in Kerala.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Khan |first=Sameer |title=Cheraman Juma Mosque: The oldest Masjid in India |url=https://www.siasat.com/cheraman-juma-mosque-the-oldest-masjid-in-india-2456333/ |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=The Siasat Daily |language=en-US}}</ref> Islam also established itself in [[Sindh]] due to [[Umayyad conquest of Sindh|Umayyad invasions]] soon after Muhammad's death.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Do you know how Islam spread in the Indian subcontinent? |url=https://www.egypttoday.com/Article/4/5996/Do-you-know-how-Islam-spread-in-the-Indian-subcontinent |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=EgyptToday}}</ref><br />
<br />
Some Jews and [[Zoroastrianism|Zoroastrians]] came to South Asia because they were fleeing religious persecution.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Goswami |first=Arunansh B. |title=Jews and Parsis: Pain, struggle and success |url=https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/jews-and-parsis-pain-struggle-and-success/ |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=blogs.timesofisrael.com |language=en-US}}</ref><br />
<br />
=== Medieval period ===<br />
Centuries of [[Muslim conquests in the Indian subcontinent|Islamic invasion and rule over South Asia]] in the medieval era began to change the religious character of the region. [[Sufism]] played a significant role in the spread of Islam during this time.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Changing Face of Sufism in South Asia |url=https://thewire.in/culture/changing-face-sufism-south-asia |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=The Wire}}</ref> [[Sikhism]] emerged in this era, bringing a message of equality and creating military resistance to Muslim rule.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Mughal Power, the Sikhs and Other Local Groups in the Punjab |url=https://academic.oup.com/book/35374/chapter-abstract/301269611?redirectedFrom=fulltext |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=academic.oup.com}}</ref><br />
<br />
[[Nepal]]'s formation during this period occurred in part due to the desire of Hindus to avoid being influenced by the dominant Muslim [[Mughal Empire]] and British Christian missionaries.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Struggle Between Hindutva and Secularism in Nepal |url=https://hir.harvard.edu/the-struggle-between-hindutva-and-secularism-in-nepal/ |access-date=2023-09-07 |website=Harvard International Review |language=en}}</ref><br />

<br />
[[Religious nationalism]] has grown in the post-colonial era.

<br />
Lhasa is the second most populous urban area on the [[Tibetan Plateau]] after [[Xining]] and, at an altitude of {{convert|3656|m|ft|sigfig=4}}, Lhasa is one of the [[List of highest large cities|highest cities in the world]]. The city has been the religious and administrative capital of [[Tibet]] since the mid-17th century. It contains many culturally significant [[Tibetan Buddhism|Tibetan Buddhist]] sites such as the [[Potala Palace]], [[Jokhang]] Temple and [[Norbulingka]] Palaces.<br />
<br />
==Toponymy==<br />
Lhasa literally translates to "place of gods" ({{lang|bo|ལྷ}} {{transl|bo|lha}}, god; {{lang|bo|ས}} {{transl|bo|sa}}, place) in the [[Standard Tibetan|Tibetan language]]. Chengguan literally translates to "urban gateway" ({{zh|s=城关|p=Chéngguān}}) in the Chinese language. Ancient Tibetan documents and inscriptions demonstrate that the place was called Rasa ({{lang|bo|ར་ས}}),<ref name="Lhasa and the Soul of Tibet">{{cite web|url=https://www.stephenbatchelor.org/index.php/en/lhasa-and-the-soul-of-tibet|title=Lhasa and the Soul of Tibet|website=www.stephenbatchelor.org|language=en-gb|access-date=2018-10-09}}</ref>{{Citation needed|reason=Source needed for this claim}} which meant "goat's place", as it was a herding site.<ref name="Lhasa and the Soul of Tibet"/>{{Citation needed|reason=Source needed for this claim}} The name was changed to Lhasa, which means "place of gods", upon its establishment as the capital of Tibet, and construction of the Jokhang temple was completed, which housed a holy statue of the Buddha.<ref>Anne-Marie Blondeau and Yonten Gyatso, 'Lhasa, Legend and History,' in Françoise Pommaret-Imaeda (ed.)Lhasa in the seventeenth century: the capital of the Dalai Lamas,'' BRILL, 2003, pp.15–38, pp.21–22.</ref><ref>John Powers, ''Introduction to Tibetan Buddhism'', Snow Lion Publications, 2007, p.144.</ref> Lhasa is first recorded as the name, referring to the area's temple of Jowo, in a treaty drawn up between China and Tibet in 822 C.E.<ref>Anne-Marie Blondeau and Yonten Gyatso, 'Lhasa, Legend and History,' pp.21–22.</ref> In some old European maps, where Tibet is depicted, a town under the name ''Barantola'' can be come up with; this town has mostly been suggested to be Lhasa, at other times to refer to modern Bulantai/Boluntay in the western part of the [[Qinghai]] province.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
[[File:Songstengampo.jpg|thumb|left|[[Songtsen Gampo]]]]<br />
<br />
By the mid 7th century, [[Songtsen Gampo]] became the leader of the [[Tibetan Empire]] that had risen to power in the [[Yarlung Tsangpo River]] (whose lower reaches in India is known as the ''[[Brahmaputra River]]'') Valley.<ref name="Stein, R. A. 1962. p. 62">Stein, R. A. ''Tibetan Civilization'' 1962. Revised English edition, 1972, Faber & Faber, London. Reprint, 1972. Stanford University Press, p. 62. {{ISBN|0-8047-0806-1}} cloth; {{ISBN|0-8047-0901-7}} pbk., p. 59.</ref> After conquering the kingdom of [[Zhangzhung]] in the west, he moved the capital from the Chingwa [[Taktsé Castle]] in [[Chongye County]] ([[pinyin]]: Qióngjié Xiàn), southwest of [[Yarlung Valley|Yarlung]], to Rasa (Lhasa) where in 637 he raised the first structures on the site of what is now the [[Potala Palace]] on Mount Marpori.<ref>Dorje (1999), p. 201.</ref><br />
In CE 639 and 641, Songtsen Gampo, who by this time had conquered the whole Tibetan region, is said to have contracted two alliance marriages, firstly to a Princess [[Bhrikuti]] of Nepal,<ref>Snellgrove, David. 1987. ''Indo-Tibetan Buddhism: Indian Buddhists and Their Tibetan Successors''. 2 Vols. Shambhala, Boston, Vol. II, p. 416.</ref> and then, two years later, to [[Princess Wencheng]] of the Imperial [[Tang dynasty|Tang]] court. Bhrikuti is said to have converted him to [[Buddhism]], which was also the faith attributed to his second wife Wencheng. In 641 he constructed the [[Jokhang]] (or Rasa Trülnang Tsulagkhang) and [[Ramoche Temple]]s in Lhasa in order to house two [[Buddha statue]]s, the [[Akshobhya|Akshobhya Vajra]] (depicting the Buddha at the age of eight) and the [[Jowo (statue)|Jowo Sakyamuni]] (depicting Buddha at the age of twelve), respectively brought to his court by the princesses.<ref>Anne-Marie Blondeau, Yonten Gyatso, 'Lhasa, Legend and History,' in Françoise Pommaret(ed.)

A Tibetan tradition mentions that after Songtsen Gampo's death in 649 C.E., Chinese troops captured Lhasa and burnt the Red Palace.<ref>{{cite book|url={{Google books |U7C0I2KRyEUC |Tibet Past and Present |page=28 |plainurl=yes}} |title=Tibet Past and Present |first=Charles |last=Bell |author-link=Charles Alfred Bell |year=1924 |page=28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/query?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.billboard.com%2F%23%2Fartist%2FRihanna%2Fchart-history%2F658897%3Ff%3D793%26g%3DSingles&date=2011-10-02 |archive-date=2011-10-02 }} Reprinted in 1992 by CUP Motilal Banarsidass, {{ISBN|81-208-1048-1}}.</ref><ref name="W.

<br />
From the fall of the monarchy in the 9th century to the accession of the [[5th Dalai Lama]], the centre of political power in the Tibetan region was not situated in Lhasa. However, the importance of Lhasa as a religious site became increasingly significant as the centuries progressed.<ref>Bloudeau, Anne-Mari &amp; Gyatso, Yonten. 'Lhasa, Legend and History' in Lhasa in the Seventeenth Century: The Capital of the Dalai Lamas, 2003, pp. 24-25.</ref> It was known as the centre of Tibet where [[Padmasambhava]] magically pinned down the earth demoness and built the foundation of the [[Jokhang Temple]] over her heart.<ref>Bloudeau, Anne-Mari &amp; Gyatso, Yonten.

<br />
By the 15th century, the city of Lhasa had risen to prominence following the founding of three large [[Gelugpa]] monasteries by [[Je Tsongkhapa]] and his disciples. The three monasteries are [[Ganden]], [[Sera monastery|Sera]] and [[Drepung]] which were built as part of the puritanical Buddhist revival in Tibet.<ref name="Dorje 1999, p. 69">Dorje (1999), p. 69.</ref> The scholarly achievements and political know-how of this Gelugpa Lineage eventually pushed Lhasa once more to centre stage.<br />
<br />
The 5th [[Dalai Lama]], [[Lobsang Gyatso]] (1617–1682), unified Tibet and moved the centre of his administration to Lhasa in 1642 with the help of [[Güshi Khan]] of the [[Khoshut]]. With Güshi Khan as a largely uninvolved overlord, the 5th Dalai Lama and his intimates established a civil administration which is referred to by historians as the ''Lhasa state''. The core leadership of this government is also referred to as the [[Ganden Phodrang]], and Lhasa thereafter became both the religious and political capital.<ref name="Berzin Early">{{cite web |last=Berzin |first=Alexander |title=The History of the Early Period of Buddhism and Bon in Tibet |url=http://studybuddhism.com/web/en/archives/study/history_buddhism/buddhism_tibet/details_tibetan_history/history_early_period_buddhism_tibet/Part_1.html |work=The Historical Interaction between the Buddhist and Islamic Cultures before the Mongol Empire |publisher=Study Buddhism |access-date=20 June 2016 |year=1996 |quote=With Tibet conceived as a demoness lying on her back and locations for the temples carefully selected according to the rules of Chinese acupuncture applied to the body of the demoness, Songtsen-gampo hoped to neutralize any opposition to his rule from local malevolent spirits. Of the thirteen Buddhist temples, the major one was constructed eighty miles from the imperial capital, at the site that later became known as "Lhasa" (Lha-sa, The Place of the Gods). At the time, it was called "Rasa" (Ra-sa, The Place of the Goats). Western scholars speculate that the Emperor was persuaded to avoid building the temple at the capital so as not to offend the traditional gods.}}</ref> In 1645, the reconstruction of the [[Potala Palace]] began on Red Hill.<ref name="Laird, Thomas 2006 pp. 175">Laird, Thomas.

Although some wooden carvings and [[lintel (architecture)|lintel]]s of the Jokhang Temple date to the 7th century, the oldest of Lhasa's extant buildings, such as within the Potala Palace, the Jokhang and some of the monasteries and properties in the Old Quarter date to this second flowering in Lhasa's history.<br />
<br />
By the end of the 17th century, Lhasa's [[Barkhor]] area formed a bustling market for foreign goods. The Jesuit missionary, [[Ippolito Desideri]] reported in 1716 that the city had a cosmopolitan community of Mongol, Chinese, Muscovite, Armenian, Kashmiri, Nepalese and Northern Indian traders. Tibet was exporting musk, gold, medicinal plants, furs and yak tails to far-flung markets, in exchange for sugar, tea, saffron, Persian turquoise, European amber and Mediterranean coral.<ref>Emily T. Yeh,'Living Together in Lhasa: Ethnic Relations, Coercive Amity, and Subaltern Cosmopolitanism,' in Shail Mayaram (ed.) ''The other global city,'' Taylor &amp; Francis US. 2009, pp.54-85, pp.58-7.</ref> The [[Qing dynasty]] army entered Lhasa in 1720, and the Qing government sent resident commissioners, called the [[Amban]]s, to Lhasa. In November 11 of 1750, the murder of the regent by the Ambans triggered a [[Lhasa riot of 1750|riot in the city]] that left more than a hundred people killed, including the Ambans. After suppressing the rebels, Qing [[Qianlong Emperor]] reorganized the Tibetan government and set up the governing council called [[Kashag]] in Lhasa in 1751. <br />

In January 1904, a [[British Empire|British]] [[British Indian Army|expeditionary force]] invaded and captured Lhasa during the [[British expedition to Tibet]]. The expedition's leader, [[Francis Younghusband|Sir Francis Younghusband]] negotiated the [[Treaty of Lhasa|Convention Between Great Britain and Tibet]] with the remaining Tibetan officials after the [[13th Dalai Lama|Dalai Lama]] had fled to the countryside. The treaty was subsequently repudiated and was succeeded by [[Convention Between Great Britain and China Respecting Tibet|a 1906 Anglo-Chinese treaty]]. All Qing troops left Lhasa after the [[Xinhai Lhasa turmoil]] in 1912.<br />
<br />
By the 20th century, Lhasa, long a beacon for both Tibetan and foreign Buddhists, had numerous ethnically and religiously distinct communities, among them [[Tibetan Muslims|Kashmiri Muslims]], [[Ladakh]]i merchants, [[Islam and Sikhism|Sikh converts to Islam]], and Chinese traders and officials. The Kashmiri Muslims (''Khache'') trace their arrival in Lhasa to the Muslim saint of [[Patna]], Khair ud-Din, contemporary with the 5th Dalai Lama.<ref>John Bray, 'Trader, Middleman or Spy? The Dilemmas of a Kashmiri Muslim in Early Nineteenth-Century Tibet,' in Anna Akasoy, Charles Burnett, Ronit Yoeli-Tlalim (eds.)''Islam and Tibet: Interactions Along the Musk Routes,'' Ashgate Publishing, Ltd., 2011, pp.313-338, p.315.</ref> [[Islam in China|Chinese Muslims]] lived in a quarter to the south, and [[Lhasa Newar (trans-Himalayan traders)|Newar merchants]] from [[Kathmandu]] to the north of the Barkhor market. Residents of the Lubu neighbourhood were descended from Chinese vegetable farmers who stayed over after accompanying an [[Amban]] from [[Sichuan]] in the mid-nineteenth century; some later intermarried with Tibetan women and spoke Tibetan as their first language.<ref>Emily T. Yeh,'Living Together in Lhasa: Ethnic Relations, Coercive Amity, and Subaltern Cosmopolitanism,' pp.59-60.</ref> The city's merchants catered to all kinds of tastes, importing even Australian butter and Scottish whisky. In the 1940s, according to [[Heinrich Harrer]]:-<br />
:<blockquote>'There is nothing one cannot buy, or at least order. One even finds the [[Elizabeth Arden]] specialties, and there is a keen demand for them. . .You can order, too, sewing machines, radio sets and gramophones and hunt up [[Bing Crosby]] records.'<ref>[[Heinrich Harrer]], ''Seven Years in Tibet,'' Penguin 1997 p.140, cited in Peter Bishop, ''The myth of Shangri-La: Tibet, travel writing, and the western creation of sacred landscape,'' University of California Press, 1989 p.192.</ref> </blockquote><br />

After the establishment of [[Communist Party of China|Communist]] Chinese [[China|People's Republic of China]], "(...) the People's Liberation Army (PLA) [[Invasion|invaded]] the country in 1950. In [[Tibetan Uprising Day|March 1959, an uprising]] centered on the [[Capital city|capital]], Lhasa, prompted a massive crackdown, during which the [[14th Dalai Lama|Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso (b. 1935)]], fled into exile."<ref>{{Cite book|title=The Buddha Party: How the People's Republic of China Works to Define and Control Tibetan Buddhism|last=Powers|first=John|publisher=Oxford University Press|year=2017|isbn=9780199358151|location=New York|page=18|oclc=947145370|quote="From birth they had been exposed to pro-China propaganda and denunciations of the Dalai Lama and the government he headed before troops from the People's Liberation Army (PLA) entered Tibet in 1950.

Of the 22 parks (''lingka''s) which surrounded the city of Lhasa, most of them over half a mile in length, where the people of Lhasa were accustomed to picnic, only three survive today: the [[Norbulingka]], Dalai Lama's Summer Palace, constructed by the [[7th Dalai Lama]];<ref name="Dorje 1999, p. 69"/> a small part of the Shugtri Lingka, and the [[Lukhang]].

<br />
Between 1987 and 1989, Lhasa experienced major demonstrations, led by monks and nuns, against the Chinese Government. After [[Deng Xiaoping]]'s [[Deng Xiaoping's southern tour|southern tour]] in 1992, Lhasa was mandated by the government to undergo economic liberalization. All government employees, their families and students were forbidden from practicing their religion, while monks and nuns were not allowed to enter government offices and the [[Tibet University]] campus. Subsequent to the introduction of the economic development policies, the influx of migrants has dramatically altered the city's ethnic mix in Lhasa.<ref name="Emily T. Yeh p.70">Emily T.

In 2000 the urbanised area covered {{convert|53|km2}}, with a population of around 170,000. Official statistics of the metropolitan area report that 70&nbsp;percent are Tibetan, 24.3 are Han, and the remaining 2.7 Hui, though outside observers suspect that non-Tibetans account for some 50–70&nbsp;percent. Among the Han immigrants, Lhasa is known as 'Little Sichuan'.<ref name="Emily T. Yeh p.70"/><br />

The term "Chengguan District" is the administrative term for the inner urban area or the urban centre within a prefecture, in this case the Prefectural-city of Lhasa. Outside of the urban area much of Chengguan District is mainly mountainous with a near nonexistent rural population.<br />
Chengguan District is at the same administrative level as a county.{{sfn|Subramanya|2004|p=486}}<br />
Chengguan District of Lhasa was established on 23 April 1961. <br />

Owing to its very high elevation, Lhasa has a borderline [[cool semi-arid climate|cool semi-arid]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''BSk'')/monsoon-influenced [[humid continental climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]]: ''Dwb'') using the {{convert|0|C|F|abbr=on}} isotherm with frosty winters and mild summers, yet the valley location protects the city from intense cold or heat and strong winds. Monthly possible sunshine ranges from 53&nbsp;percent in July to 84&nbsp;percent in November, and the city receives nearly 3,000 hours of sunlight annually. It is thus sometimes called the "sunlit city" by Tibetans. The coldest month is January with an average temperature of {{convert|−0.3|°C|1}} and the warmest month is June with a daily average of {{convert|16.7|°C|1}}, though nights have generally been warmer in July.<ref name = CMA/> The annual mean temperature is {{convert|8.8|°C|1}}, with extreme temperatures ranging from {{convert|−16.5|to|30.8|°C|°F|0}}.<ref name = Mherrera/> Lhasa has an annual precipitation of {{convert|458|mm|in|1}} with rain falling mainly in July, August and September. The driest month is December at {{convert|0.3|mm|2}} and the wettest month is August, at {{convert|133.5|mm|2}}. Summer is widely regarded the "best" of the year as rains come mostly at night and Lhasa is still sunny during the daytime.<br />

<br />
=== Demographics in the past ===<br />
The 11th edition of ''[[Encyclopædia Britannica Eleventh Edition|Encyclopædia Britannica]]'' published between 1910 and 1911 noted the total population of Lhasa, including the lamas in the city and vicinity was about 30,000,<ref name="Britannica">{{Cite web|url=https://theodora.com/encyclopedia/l2/lhasa.html|title=Lhasa - Encyclopedia|website=theodora.com}}</ref> A census in 1854 made the figure 42,000, but it is known to have greatly decreased afterwards. ''Britannica'' noted that within Lhasa, there were about a total of 1,500 resident Tibetan laymen and about 5,500 Tibetan women.<ref name="Britannica"/> The permanent population also included Chinese families (about 2,000).<ref name="Britannica"/> The city's residents included traders from [[Nepal]] and [[Ladakh]] (about 800), and a few from Bhutan, Mongolia and other places.<ref name="Britannica"/> The ''Britannica'' noted with interest that the Chinese had a crowded burial-ground at Lhasa, tended carefully after their manner and that the Nepalese supplied mechanics and metal-workers at that time.<ref name="Britannica"/><br />
<br />
In the first half of the 20th century, several [[Western culture|Western]] explorers made celebrated journeys to the city, including [[William Montgomery McGovern]], [[Francis Younghusband]], [[Alexandra David-Néel]], and [[Heinrich Harrer]]. Lhasa was the centre of Tibetan Buddhism as nearly half of its population were [[monk]]s,<ref>{{cite book |url=https://archive.org/details/lhasastreetswith0000barn |title=Lhasa: Streets with Memories |last=Barnett |first=Robert |publisher=Columbia University Press |quote="population of Lhasa in 1904 was estimated by the British at 30,000 people, of whom 20,000 were said to be monks [...] in 1936 Spencer Chapman estimated the population at 50,000 to 60,000, consisting of 20,000 residents and 30,000 to 40,000 monks" |isbn=9780231510110 |url-access=registration }}</ref> Though this figure may include monks from surrounding monasteries who travelled to Lhasa for various celebrations and were not ordinarily resident there.<br />
<br />
The majority of the pre-1950 Chinese population of Lhasa were merchants and officials. In the Lubu section of Lhasa, the inhabitants were descendants of Chinese vegetable farmers, some of whom married Tibetan wives. They came to Lhasa in the 1840s–1860s after a Chinese official was appointed to the position of [[Amban]].<ref>{{cite book |last=Mayaram |first=Shail |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=QVSVux0wIW0C&pg=PA60 |title=The other global city |year=2009 |publisher=Taylor & Francis US |isbn=978-0-415-99194-0 |page=60 |access-date=2010-06-28}}</ref><br />
<br />
According to one writer, the population of the city was about 10,000, with some 10,000 monks at Drepung and Sera monasteries in 1959.<ref>Dowman (1988), p. 39.</ref> Hugh Richardson, on the other hand, puts the population of Lhasa in 1952, at "some 25,000–30,000—about 45,000–50,000 if the population of the great monasteries on its outskirts be included."<ref>Richardson (1984), p. 7.</ref><br />
<br />
===Contemporary demographics===<br />
The total population of Lhasa Prefecture-level City is 521,500 (including known migrant population but excluding military garrisons). Of this, 257,400 are in the urban area (including a migrant population of 100,700), while 264,100 are outside.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.lasa.gov.cn/|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060813083109/http://www.lasa.gov.cn/gb1/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemid=30|url-status=dead|title=拉萨市人民政府|archivedate=August 13, 2006|website=www.lasa.gov.cn}}</ref> Nearly half of Lhasa Prefecture-level City's population lives in Chengguan District, which is the administrative division that contains the urban area of Lhasa (i.e. the actual city).<br />
<br />
The urban area is populated by ethnic Tibetans, Han, Hui and other ethnic groups.{{Citation needed}} The 2000 official census gave a total population of 223,001, of which 171,719 lived in the areas administered by city street offices and city neighborhood committees. <br />
133,603 had urban registrations and 86,395 had rural registrations, based on their place of origin.{{sfn|Yeh|Henderson|2008|pp=21–25}}<br />
The census was taken in November, when many of the ethnic Han workers in seasonal industries such as construction would have been away from Tibet, and did not count the military.{{sfn|Yeh|Henderson|2008|pp=21–25}}<br />
A 2011 book estimated that up to two-thirds of the city's residents are non-Tibetan, although the government states that Chengguan District as a whole is still 63% ethnic Tibetan.{{sfn|Johnson|2011|p=81}} {{As of|2014}}, half of Tibet's Han population resided in the district, where [[Bilingual education|bilingual]] or wholly Chinese teaching was common in the schools.{{sfn|Leibold|Chen|2014|p=117}}<br />

Competitive industry together with feature economy play key roles in the development of Lhasa. With the view to maintaining a balance between population growth and the environment, tourism and service industries are emphasised as growth engines for the future.<br />
Many of Lhasa's rural residents practice traditional agriculture and [[animal husbandry]]. Lhasa is also the traditional hub of the Tibetan trading network. For many years, chemical and car making plants operated in the area and this resulted in significant pollution, a factor which has changed in recent years. [[Copper]], [[lead]] and [[zinc]] are mined nearby and there is ongoing experimentation regarding new methods of mineral mining and geothermal heat extraction.<br />
<br />
Agriculture and animal husbandry in Lhasa are considered to be of a high standard. People mainly plant [[highland barley]] and winter [[wheat]]. The resources of water conservancy, [[geothermal heating]], [[solar energy]] and various mines are abundant. There is widespread electricity together with the use of both [[machinery]] and traditional methods in the production of such things as [[textile]]s, [[leather]]s, plastics, matches and [[embroidery]]. The production of national handicrafts has made great progress.<br />

With the growth of tourism and service sectors, the sunset industries which cause serious pollution are expected to fade in the hope of building a healthy ecological system. Environmental problems such as [[soil erosion]], [[Soil acidification|acidification]], and loss of [[vegetation]] are being addressed. The tourism industry now brings significant business to the region, building on the attractiveness of the Potala Palace, the [[Jokang]], the [[Norbulingka]] Summer Palace and surrounding large monasteries as well the spectacular [[Himalaya]]n landscape together with the many wild plants and animals native to the high altitudes of [[Central Asia]]. Tourism to Tibet dropped sharply following the crackdown on protests in 2008, but as early as 2009, the industry was recovering.<ref>Xinhua, [http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2009-02/13/content_10816396.htm "Tibet tourism warms as spring comes"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121107181433/http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2009-02/13/content_10816396.htm }}, 2009-02-13.</ref> Chinese authorities plan an ambitious growth of tourism in the region aiming at 10 million visitors by 2020; these visitors are expected to be domestic.

Lhasa contains several hotels. [[Lhasa Hotel]] is a 4-star hotel located northeast of Norbulingka in the western suburbs of the city. Completed in September 1985, it is the flagship of CITS's installations in Tibet. It accommodates about 1000 guests and visitors to Lhasa. There are over 450 rooms (suites) in the hotel, and all are equipped with [[air conditioning]], [[mini-bar]] and other basic facilities. Some of the rooms are decorated in traditional Tibetan style. The hotel was operated by Holiday Inn from 1986 to 1997<ref>{{cite web|url=http://hotels.lonelyplanet.com/china/lhasa-r1973718/lhasa-hotel-p1037396/ |title=Lhasa Hotel in Lhasa, China - Lonely Planet |publisher=Hotels.lonelyplanet.com |access-date=2013-03-26 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120730185333/http://hotels.lonelyplanet.com/china/lhasa-r1973718/lhasa-hotel-p1037396/ |archive-date=2012-07-30 }}</ref> and is the subject of a book, ''[[The Hotel on the Roof of the World]]''.

The Nam-tso Restaurant is located in the vicinity of the hotel and is frequented especially by Chinese tourists visiting Lhasa.<br />
<br />
Lhasa contains several businesses of note. [[Lhasa Carpet Factory]], a [[factory]] south of Yanhe Dong Lu near the [[Tibet University]], produces traditional [[Tibetan rug]]s that are exported worldwide. It is a modern factory, the largest manufacturer of rugs throughout Tibet, employing some 300 workers. Traditionally Tibetan women were the weavers, and men the spinners, but both work on the rugs today.<br />
<br />
The [[Lhasa Brewery Company]] was established in 1988 on the northern outskirts of Lhasa, south of [[Sera Monastery]] and is the highest commercial brewery in the world at {{convert|11975|ft|m}} and accounts for 85&nbsp;percent of contemporary beer production in Tibet.<ref name="Sun">{{cite web|url=http://www.tibetsun.com/features/2009/08/12/lhasa-beer-from-tibet-makes-us-debut/|title=Lhasa beer from Tibet makes US debut|publisher=Tibet Sun|access-date=September 27, 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717053641/http://www.tibetsun.com/features/2009/08/12/lhasa-beer-from-tibet-makes-us-debut/|archive-date=July 17, 2011}}</ref> The brewery, consisting of five-story buildings, cost an estimated US$20–25&nbsp;million, and by 1994, production had reached 30,000 bottles per day, employing some 200 workers by this time.<ref name="Gluckman">{{cite book |last=Gluckman |first=Ron |url=http://www.gluckman.com/Lhasa%27Brew.html |title=Brewing at the Top of the World |publisher=Asia, Inc. |year=1994}}</ref> Since 2000, the [[Carlsberg Group|Carlsberg group]] has increased its stronghold in the Chinese market and has become increasingly influential in the country with investment and expertise.

[[File:Potala Palace, August 2009.jpg|thumb|The [[Potala Palace]]]]<br />
<br />
Lhasa has many sites of historic interest, including the [[Potala Palace]], [[Jokhang Temple]], [[Sera Monastery]] and [[Norbulingka]]. The Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple and the Norbulingka are UNESCO world heritage sites.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/707 |title=Historic Ensemble of the Potala Palace, Lhasa |publisher=unesco |access-date=2008-02-10 }} In the surrounding prefecture of Lhasa are [[Sera Monastery]] and its many hermitages, many of which overlook Lhasa from the northern hill valleys and [[Drepung Monastery]], amongst many others of historical importance.<br />

After the [[14th Dalai Lama]] fled to [[India]] during the [[1959 Tibetan uprising]], the government converted the palace into a museum. The site was used as a [[meditation]] retreat by King [[Songtsen Gampo]], who in 637 built the first palace there in order to greet his bride [[Princess Wen Cheng]] of the [[Tang dynasty]] of China. [[Lozang Gyatso, 5th Dalai Lama|Lozang Gyatso]], the Great Fifth Dalai Lama, started the construction of the Potala Palace in 1645<ref name="Laird, Thomas 2006 pp. 175"/> after one of his spiritual advisers, Konchog Chophel (d. 1646), pointed out that the site was ideal as a seat of government, situated as it is between [[Drepung]] and [[Sera Monastery|Sera]] monasteries and the old city of Lhasa.<ref name="autogenerated1"/> The palace underwent restoration works between 1989 and 1994, costing RMB55&nbsp;million (US$6.875&nbsp;million) and was inscribed to the [[UNESCO]] [[World Heritage List]] in 1994.<br />

[[Lingkhor]] is a [[sacred]] path, most commonly used to name the outer [[pilgrim]] road in Lhasa matching its inner twin, Barkhor. The Lingkhor in Lhasa was {{convert|8|km|mi}} long enclosing Old Lhasa, the Potala and [[Chokpori]] hill. In former times it was crowded with men and women covering its length in [[prostration]]s, [[beggar]]s and [[pilgrim]]s approaching the city for the first time. The road passed through willow-shaded parks where the Tibetans used to [[picnic]] in summer and watch open air operas on festival days. New Lhasa has obliterated most of Lingkhor, but one stretch still remains west of Chokpori.<br />

It was built from 1755.<ref name="Tibet71">Tibet (1986), p.71</ref> and served as the traditional summer residence of the successive [[Dalai Lama]]s until the 14th's self-imposed exile. Norbulingka was declared a 'National Important Cultural Relic Unit", in 1988 by the State council. In 2001, the Central Committee of the Chinese Government in its 4th Tibet Session resolved to restore the complex to its original glory.

The [[Barkhor]] is an area of narrow streets and a public square in the old part of the city located around [[Jokhang Temple]] and was the most popular devotional circumambulation for pilgrims and locals.

The [[Jokhang]] is located on Barkhor Square in the old town section of Lhasa. For most Tibetans it is the most sacred and important temple in Tibet. It is in some regards pan-sectarian, but is presently controlled by the [[Gelug]] school. Along with the [[Potala Palace]], it is probably the most popular tourist attraction in Lhasa. It is part of the [[UNESCO]] [[World Heritage Site]] "Historic Ensemble of the Potala Palace," and a spiritual centre of Lhasa. This temple has remained a key center of [[Buddhist]] [[pilgrimage]] for centuries. The circumambulation route is known as the "kora" in Tibetan and is marked by four large stone incense burners placed at the corners of the temple complex. The Jokhang temple is a four-story construction, with roofs covered with [[gilded]] [[bronze]] tiles. The [[architecture|architectural]] style is based on the Indian [[vihara]] design, and was later extended resulting in a blend of [[Nepal]]ese and [[Tang dynasty]] styles. It possesses the statues of [[Chenresig]], [[Padmasambhava]] and King [[Songtsen Gampo|Songtsan Gampo]] and his two foreign brides, Princess [[Wen Cheng]] (niece of [[Emperor Taizong of Tang]]) and Princess [[Bhrikuti]] of [[Nepal]] and other important items.<br />
<br />
[[Ramoche Temple]] is considered the most important temple in Lhasa after the Jokhang Temple. Situated in the northwest of the city, it is east of the Potala and north of the Jokhang,<ref name="Dowman, Keith 1988. p. 59">Dowman, Keith. 1988. ''The Power-Places of Central Tibet: The Pilgrim's Guide,'' p. 59. Routledge &amp; Kegan Paul. London. {{ISBN|0-7102-1370-0}} (ppk).</ref> covering a total area of 4,000 square meters (almost one acre). The temple was gutted and partially destroyed in the 1960s and its famous bronze statue disappeared. In 1983 the lower part of it was said to have been found in a Lhasa rubbish tip, and the upper half in Beijing. They have now been joined and the statue is housed in the Ramoche Temple, which was partially restored in 1986,<ref name="Dowman, Keith 1988. p. 59"/> and still showed severe damage in 1993. Following the major restoration of 1986, the main building in the temple now has three stories.<br />

===Rail===<br />
Lhasa has been served by rail since 2006, when the [[Qinghai–Tibet Railway]] opened for passenger operations. Reaching an elevation of 5,072 metres above sea level, the Qinghai-Tibet railway is the world's highest railway by elevation. It connects Lhasa with [[Xining]], the capital of [[Qinghai Province]], some {{convert|2000|km|abbr=on}} away, and ultimately links Lhasa with other major cities with China's extensive railway network.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.appletravel.cn/news-10400.html|title=World's highest railway Qinghai-Tibet Railway to be extended to Xigaze from Lhasa - Apple Travel|website=www.appletravel.cn}}</ref> Five trains arrive at and depart from [[Lhasa railway station]] each day.

Train Z22 from Lhasa to Beijing West departs at 15:30 and arrives in Beijing at 08:20 on the third day, taking 40 hours, 50 minutes. Trains also arrive in Lhasa from [[Chengdu]], [[Chongqing]], [[Lanzhou]], Xining, [[Guangzhou]], [[Shanghai]] and other cities.<ref name=Lhasatravel>[http://chinatour.net/tibet/lhasa/get-lhasa/"How to Get to Lhasa" ChinaTour.net] Accessed 2015-3-23</ref> To counter the problem of altitude differences giving passengers [[altitude sickness]], extra oxygen is pumped in through the ventilation system and available directly on each berth with close open control by a flap for convenience of passenger, and personal oxygen masks are available on request.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/07/03/AR2006070301219.html |newspaper=The Washington Post |first=Edward |last=Cody |access-date=2010-05-07 |title=Train 27, Now Arriving Tibet, in a 'Great Leap West' }}</ref> Within the soft sleeper cabins there are 64 seats per train, which have an electrical plug for electronics.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.onceinalifetimejourney.com/once-in-a-lifetime-journeys/train-lhasa-can-expect/|title=The train to Lhasa, Tibet - What You Can Expect}}</ref><br />
<br />
Lhasa is also [[Lhasa–Xigazê Railway|connected]] to the second largest city in Tibet, [[Shigatse|Xigazê]], by rail service, since 2014.<br />
<br />
A third railway, the [[Sichuan-Tibet Railway]], which links Lhasa with [[Nyingchi County]] and into the interior ultimately terminating in [[Chengdu]], began construction in June 2015.<ref>{{cite news |script-title=zh:拉林铁路预计2014年9月份动工 全线435.39千米|url=http://www.chinatibetnews.com/travel/2014/0115/1317204.shtml|publisher=China Tibet News|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20140730031816/http://www.chinatibetnews.com/travel/2014/0115/1317204.shtml|archive-date=July 30, 2014}}</ref><br />
<br />
For onward rail travel in [[South Asia]], the closest major station in India is [[New Jalpaiguri]], [[Siliguri]] in [[West Bengal]]. However, extension of the Indian railway system to [[Sikkim]] will make it easier for onward connections through the [[South Asian]] railway network. There are preliminary plans to link Lhasa by rail with Kathmandu.<ref>{{cite news|title=Extend Tibet railway line to Kathmandu, Nepal tells China|url=http://archive.indianexpress.com/news/extend-tibet-railway-line-to-kathmandu-nepal-tells-china/527936/|publisher=The Indian Express}}</ref><br />
<br />
As per a Chinese Tibetan spokesperson, extension of this rail line to Kathmandu with tunnelling under [[Mount Everest]] was, as of 2015, expected to be completed by 2020.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/apr/09/china-may-build-rail-tunnel-under-mount-everest-state-media-reports|title=China may build rail tunnel under Mount Everest, state media reports|newspaper=[[The Guardian]]}}</ref><br />
<br />
===Air===<br />
[[Lhasa Gonggar Airport]] (IATA: '''LXA'''), built in 1965, is the aviation hub of Tibet. It is located south of the city proper. It takes around half an hour to get there by car via the [[Lhasa Airport Expressway]]; prior to the completion of the expressway in 2011, the trip to the airport took over an hour. {{As of|2014}}, there are daily flights serving major Chinese cities including Beijing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, and Shanghai, and there are also occasional scheduled services to [[Kathmandu]] in Nepal. Lhasa Airport is the hub of [[Tibet Airlines]], which offers regional services to other destinations in Tibet such as [[Nyingchi]], [[Ngari Prefecture]], [[Shigatse]], and [[Qamdo]].<br />
<br />

<br />
===Road===<br />
The [[Qinghai–Tibet Highway]] (part of G109) runs northeast toward Xining and eventually to [[Beijing]] and is the most-used road in Tibet. The [[Sichuan–Tibet Highway]] (part of G318) runs east towards [[Chengdu]] and eventually to [[Shanghai]]. G318 also runs west to [[Zhangmu]] on the Nepal border. The [[China National Highway 219|Xinjiang-Tibet Highway]] (G219) runs north from Lhasa to [[Kargilik Town|Yecheng]], and then to [[Xinjiang]]. This road is rarely used due to the lack of amenities and petrol stations. A new {{convert|37.68|km|mi}}, four-lane highway between Lhasa and the Gonggar Airport was built by the Transportation Department of Tibet at a cost of [[Renminbi|RMB]] 1.5&nbsp;billion. This road is part of [[China National Highway 318|National Highway 318]] and starts from the [[Lhasa railway station]], passes through [[Caina Township]] in [[Qushui County]], terminating between the north entrance of the [[Gala Mountain Tunnel]] and the south bridgehead of the Lhasa River Bridge, and en route goes over the first overpass of Lhasa at Liuwu Overpass.<ref name=news>{{cite web|url=http://english.chinatibetnews.com/news/Society/2009-08/12/content_287181.htm|title=New highway linking Lhasa to Gonggar Airport to be built|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110721172018/http://english.chinatibetnews.com/news/Society/2009-08/12/content_287181.htm|archive-date=2011-07-21}}</ref><br />
<br />
===Maritime===<br />
The closest seaports are [[Kolkata]] and [[Haldia]] in [[West Bengal, India]]. The [[Nathu La]] pass offers Chinese companies access to the port of Kolkata (Calcutta), situated about {{convert|1,100|km|-1|abbr=on}} from Lhasa, for trans-shipments to and from Tibet.<br />
