A 3-D postcard showing the Potala Palace ( པོ་ཏ་ལ) of Lhasa. It is the cultural significant site for Tibetan Buddhism. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage List under the name "Historic Ensemble of the Potala Palace, Lhasa." First time received a 3-D postcard. Thanks WL for sending this card while travelling to Lhasa.
Three 1.20 Yuan scenery definitive stamps and a 60 Fen environmental definitive stamp were used on this card. Apparently, only the commemorative postmark of Lhasa stamped early is more visible. The machine cancellation was so light that as of nothing is legible.
