'''Potala Palace''' (Tib. ''Podrang Potala''; [[Wyl.]] ''pho brang po ta la'') — the main palace and residence of the [[Dalai Lama]]s constructed in Lhasa by [[Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso]], the Fifth Dalai Lama. Its construction started in 1645 on a large hill upon the ruins of an old palace and hermitage, erected more than a thousand years before by [[King Songtsen Gampo]]. Up until the Chinese invasion, it also housed Tibet's central administration and the [[Namgyal Monastery]]. The palace is said to be the reflection on earth of Mount Potala (Wyl. ''ri po ta la''; Skt. ''Potalaka''), the pure [[buddha field]] of [[Avalokiteshvara]] in [[Sukhavati]].
