Tibet Guge 06 Tsaparang White Temple 09 12 Jowo Khang Chapel [13 of 45]

Along the centre of the rear wall is the smaller inner chamber called Jowo Khang, which is open to the assembly hall and provides the only light to the entire temple. The chapel once had a gigantic gilt-bronze statue of Shakyamuni on a massive stand. The caretaker has replaced the figure of Shakyamuni with one of his own statues. The left and right walls have four rows of tiny, sculpted divinities, each supported on its own pedestal. Some of the gilded clay images in the higher series are still intact. Photo – Bruno Baumann.
