摘要

<正>In comparison with my first visit to Lhasa,the transportation situation is now much improved.Taxies, rickshaws,buses and other means of public transport are almost up to expectations.Nevertheless,I prefer to walk instead.Sometimes I wander among the high-rise buildings in the west part of the city and at other times in the Barkhor Street that it is just like a maze on rainy days.Once, I strolled from the west part of the city to the Barkhor Street.This trip was just like changing time zones, from the modern tall buildings to the traditional Tibetan architecture that recalls the past.Only the fashionable children on the Barkhor Street reminded me I was not in a past era,but rather totally in the present.In Lhasa,I often see elders holding prayer wheels in their hands,and teenagers who dress in hip-hop clothes.On the street, you may see folk dancers holding a Dranyan and displaying their tap dancing in the street.Or sometimes, you could also see teenagers with acoustic instruments to accompany their hip-hop dancing.This is Lhasa, an integration of tradition and modernity.
