Description - Lhasa by Anita Ganeri

"Holy Cities" examines the role of the world's major religions in the development of certain cities. The books explore each city through those features which make up its unique identity and character. Each title provides a brief history of the city and its development, the religion(s) and major figures assiciated with it, the role and method of choice of its spiritual leaders and also particular ceremonies, traditions, festivals and rituals. Difficult words are explained in key word glossaries at the end of each chapter, and each book includes a further reading list and index. It also features "Think and Do" boxes which suggest topics for discussion and follow-up activities. Lhasa, is the capital of Tibet and one of the holiest cities of the Buddhist religion. For hundreds of years it was also the home of the Dalai Lama, Tibet's spiritual and national leader.
