The Jokhang has remained one of the main focuses of Tibetan devotion and pilgrimage up until the present time. Each day, countless pilgrims prostrate before the entrance or circumambulate its sacred precinct as an act of devotion. Its central copper gilded roofs were a gift from the Nepalese Buddhist kingdom of Kasa Malla in the 14th century while other roofs were added in the 17th century.
