Right Wangchuk. The CCP have been trying to re-write history since illegally invading Tibet in 1950. They have no answer to the fact that all Chinese visiting pre-invasion Tibet needed to have visas in their passports & how, if Tibet had always been part of China as they claim, would Chinese need visas to visit a part of thier own country?! Their claims always fail to stand up to scrutiny.

Reply to this commentThe article forgot to add that the 13th Dalai Lama publicly declared Tibet's independence from the Qing Empire & signed a treaty w/ Mongolia recognizing each other's independence. This is part of the reason China destroyed his home, to erase the memory of a Dalai Lama who challenged & beat China.

Reply to this commentIt is the home of the 13th Dalai Lama's family and not the 13th Dalai Lama himself The 13th Dalai Lama never lived in this house, his home would be either the Norbulinka or the Potala palace.

Anonymous, it was the home where the 13th Dalai Lama grew up and was a heritage site. Demolished by thugs of the CCP to in a failed attempt to hide Tibet's independence from China prior to its illegal invasion.
