For religious Tibetans their houses are only resting places for their bodies while temples are for their souls. That is why their temples are much more majestic than their houses and therefore much more culturally significant. 
 
According to the Buddhist sutras the universe is composed of four huge continents and eight small continents and its center is Mt. Meru. Tibetans follow this cosmology and create artwork called <a href="/features/mandalas.htm">Mandalas</a>  as miniature representations of the universe. They also apply their cosmology to the design of their architecture. The halls in the Sam ye Monastery  and <a href="/cityguide/ngari/tholing.htm">Tholing Monastery</a>  are examples of this. Golden Roofs are another unique feature of Tibetan temples. They are usually decorated with many holy or auspicious subjects such as lotuses, stupas, Dharma Wheels, inverted bells, prayer flags and animals.
