Crowning the Potala Palace, the gilded roofs stand as a testament to Xizang's architectural synthesis. Their evolution over multiple centuries integrates regional craftsmanship with Buddhist methodology. Intricate metalwork and sacred iconography reflect sustained intercultural exchanges across the Himalayan plateau. This golden apex endures as a living symbol of artistry that transcends temporal boundaries.
