The Jiakaxia Ancient Courtyard renovation in Lhasa's Barkhor Street showcases a blend of traditional Tibetan and modern architectural techniques. Named after the area's magpie heritage, the project aims to restore a dilapidated structure while preserving its historical significance. Spearheaded by a devoted Nepalese merchant, the renovation juxtaposes traditional craftsmanship with modern design principles, including open spaces and large windows. This effort not only revitalizes a cultural landmark but also symbolizes the harmonious coexistence of Han and Tibetan communities, promoting an evolution in architectural practices within the region.
The Jiakaxia project embodies "harmony as one family" between Han and Tibetan peoples, integrating historical architecture with modern design in the heart of Lhasa.
Transformative renovation of Jiakaxia prioritizes restoring traditional craftsmanship while introducing contemporary elements, creating a new model for preserving Tibetan architecture.
