Jokhang Monastery is the most important Buddhist temple in Tibet, located on Barkhor Square in Lhasa and means the 'House of the Buddha'. For most Tibetans it is the most sacred and important temple in Tibet. It is in some regards pansectarian, but is presently controlled by the Gelug school. This temple has remained a key center of Tibetan Buddhist pilgrimages for centuries.
