Dechen, an elderly Tibetan feels happy living in Barkor street with listening the peddling and watching the flow of visitors every day. She said:"With the improvement of people's living standard, the spiritual needs of the elderly Tibetans are changing. Most of the elderly get up around 05:00am, and start to walk around Lingkor and have Tibetan breakfast tea. Some Tibetans would like to get together to celebrate the Lingka Woods Festival and travel to Buddhism holy lands for pilgrimage in inland. We are enjoying our current life, which we dare not imagine in the past."
