Changing China: Tibetan tradition &legacy

(CNTV)

10:08, October 29, 2012

Zhuoma prepared a sumptuous lunch to entertain us. We cheer up with the Qingke barley wine, a high-pitched toast to Zhuoma represented the host’s deeply feelings.

The traditions, buildings and even the food in Tibet are very different from any other region in China.

CCTV reporter Pan Jinjing made a special visit to Daofu County in western Sichuan province, a celebrated center of Tibetan culture.

Looking down, we first see the Daofu Tibetan houses, row upon row. They’re mainly brown and white. White walls and the brown-red pigmented wooden structure have charm under blue sky and white clouds.

On our arrival, These Tibetan grandmothers warmly welcome us, giving us the Hada, the traditional Tibetan scarf. A Tibetan girl Zhuoma is pleased to serve as our guide, introducing us to the Daofu houses they are very proud of. As we enter the room, we are hit by a strong and fragrant aroma - Zhuoma told me that this is the scent from local cedar wood.
