Tibet's Changing Landscape: Lhasa

Tibet was once among the world's most isolated places. Its main city, Lhasa, was a center of traditional culture and Tibetan Buddhism. But in recent years, development by the Chinese government has brought waves of construction. This episode of Asia Insight takes a look at the ways some people are benefiting from Tibet's development boom, while others are simply trying to hang on.
