Prayer wheels at the foot of the Potala Palace
Tibetans walk along prayer wheels at the foot of the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet. They pass a young boy, taking a break from his pilgrimage, with a candy bar. The boy's pilgrimage though is more of an act put on for begging purposes than for the religious act itself, and a tourist was most likely the source of the boy's candy bar.
