It is an absolute tragedy that the Tibetan culture is being lost. Tibet should be free to determine it's own destiny. I certainly wish that there was more concern with the rights of Tibetans by the rest of the world which has largly ignored the occupation of Tibet by China. The US could do more alas, it is business as usual. Tibet was a sovereign Nation and not part of China until the

The newly constructed apartment buildings really contrast with the colorful, richly decorated traditional Tibetan architecture. What's more, they're pretty much just big boxes without much luxury; the apartments are small and cramped, and they smell. My heart goes out to the Tibetan people...
