OFFICIAL Card - China

The user "Kolnriver" sent me this card. He wrote that he saw I had many cards of China and he chose this one showing Potala Palace in Tibet. He writes this view is 20 years old as there are other buildings around it now. This is also a UNESCO site.

Direct Swap - Peter from Tibet, China

Peter was travelling to Tibet for his birthday at the end of December and generously offered to send cards through the forum. While cards from China may be frequent, cards from the Tibet area are not (at least not for me). His card arrived last week. The view shows Norbu Lingka, the summer palace of the Dalai Lama. This is also a UNESCO site. Peter wrote saying the Potala Palace, was majestic and you could see for 10 kms away. He also had a special cancellation of the Palace used on the card.
