The palace was first built in the 7th century AD by the Tibetan king Sronzangambo in honor of the arrival of his bride Princess Wenchen from China. Then the Palace had 999 rooms. Of the most ancient rooms, two rooms have survived to this day: the living room of King Sronzangampo and the temple, where the main statue of the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara is installed.
