Capital in the Himalayas (5)
I believe the answer is:
lhasa
'capital in the himalayas' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for lhasa that I've seen before include "Capital of Tibet" , "Group; stripe" , "Tibetan capital" , "Sacred city" , "Tibet's "Forbidden City"" .)
