We arrived in Lhasa the afternoon of August 3rd. After much debate and members of the group having to come to terms the fact that the chinese bureaucracy owned us, we decided to stay at the Kirey Hotel off of Beijing Zhonglu near the Barkhor and Jokhang. While in Lhasa, the majority of my time was spent wandering around town and talking with locals. I visited a few temples, bought some cool souvenirs, and took plenty of pictures. Although the development in Lhasa is incredible, the majority of locals (99%) were very happy with it...both tibetans and han chinese immigrants.
