Narbulingka,
located on the banks of the Kyichi River, is a tree and flower filled
park covering a total area of 360,000 square meters. It is the site of
the summer palace of the Dalai Lamas (8th to 14th). The small palace of
the 13th Dalai Lama is an odd mix of traditional Tibetan architecture
and modern paraphernalia. The one and only zoo in Tibet is at Narbulingka.
