Three-dimensional view of the landscape of Lhasa, Tibet
November 24, 2005 - With an elevation of 3, 650 meters (11, 975 feet), Lhasa, Tibet is one of the highest elevation cities in the world. The city fills a flat river valley nestled in the ranges of the Himalaya Mountains in southern China. This image provides a three-dimensional view of the landscape.
Mountains seem to radiate spoke-like from the flat plain on which the city is built. The high mountains are brown. Lhasa is red and silver in the false color image in which plant-covered land is red and man-made surfaces tend to be silver or white. The Lhasa River winds through the valley. Its wandering channels provide evidence that the ground is relatively flat, since the topography of the land isnat forcing the riveras course.
Lhasa is the administrative capital of the Tibet Autonomous Region in China. Situated in the center of the Tibetan Plateau, the city has a long history of government. The Potala Palace and the Norbulingka are the most prominent features within the city in this image. The fortress-like Potala Palace complex sits on a small rise in the center of the city, forming two large white squares that are roughly the size of the city blocks visible around the complex. It is the largest single man-made surface in the image. Norbulingka, is the largest park in the image. It is the red, plant-covered rectangle west of Potala Palace. The two sites together are a World Heritage Site.
The final most notable feature in the image is the Lhalu Wetland Nature Reserve on the northern side of the city. The reserve is red-brown with black smudges where water darkens the surface

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a breathtaking three-dimensional view of the stunning landscape of Lhasa, Tibet. With its remarkable elevation of 3,650 meters (11,975 feet), Lhasa stands as one of the highest cities in the world. Nestled amidst the majestic Himalaya Mountains in southern China, this image unveils a mesmerizing sight. The mountains surrounding Lhasa appear to radiate like spokes from the flat plain on which the city is built. The towering peaks boast shades of brown while Lhasa itself is depicted in red and silver tones through false color imaging. In this unique representation, plant-covered land appears vibrant red while man-made structures shimmer silver or white. As we explore further into this enchanting scene, we notice the meandering path of the Lhasa River flowing through the valley. Its winding channels indicate that despite being surrounded by high mountains, the ground remains relatively flat. Lhasa serves as both an administrative capital and historical hub within China's Tibet Autonomous Region. The iconic Potala Palace takes center stage with its fortress-like appearance atop a small rise in the heart of the city. This grand complex forms two large white squares comparable to neighboring city blocks visible around it. Adjacent to Potala Palace lies Norbulingka – an expansive park characterized by its lush red vegetation seen westward from our vantage point. Together, these sites constitute a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lastly, we cannot overlook another notable feature captured in this image –the striking Lhalu Wetland Nature Reserve located northwards from Lhasa's bustling streetscape. Here we witness a beautiful blend of reddish-brown hues interrupted only by dark smudges where water has gently colored its surface. This extraordinary photograph allows us to appreciate not only nature's magnificence but also humanity's architectural marvels harmoniously coexisting within such awe-inspiring surroundings.
