As the most prosperous city in Xizang Autonomous Region, Lhasa has many places of interest, the most famous of which is the Potala Palace. Lhasa, a city with an altitude of 3,700 meters, not only produces altitude sickness, but also makes you marvel at Lhasa's long history and culture. According to historical records, there were many tribes on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the 1 century. Tribes fought against each other, and later some tribes began to form alliances in order to make themselves stronger. At this time, Jiqu has been well known by people, and Jiqu is the ancient name of Lhasa River. In 64 1 year, Songtsan Gambu realized his father's last wish and unified Tibet. Later, the young prince married Princess Wencheng of Datang. Princess Wencheng is not only beautiful, but also smart. She proposed to fill the lake with white goats to build a temple. Jokhang Temple was a masterpiece at that time. It was called Giza at that time, and thousands of years later it evolved into Lhasa today. During the reign of Songtsan Gambo, the capital was moved to Lhasa, which made Lhasa's status suddenly rise. The Potala Palace built here by the Fifth Dalai Lama made Lhasa the center of political and religious activities in people in Xizang. Lhasa, a snowy city, is more sacred and charming because of its strong religious color. The Dalai Lama is scrambling to build magnificent, tall and luxurious temples in the urban areas. Today, businessmen from all over the world gather in Lhasa to form five major markets. The Han people living in the south of the city mostly grow vegetables and mix wine for a living. Lhasa's culture is unique. Here are some typical examples. The first one is a warp wheel. In this area dominated by Tibetan Buddhism, tourists can often see Tibetans chanting scriptures. They wandered in temples, mountains, rivers and lakes, shaking the scriptures. The prevalence of warp knitting is closely related to the appearance of warp knitting wheel. The second is Tibetan mastiff culture. Tibet is a place that produces valuable purebred tibetan mastiff. On the vast grassland, herders live by grazing, and Tibetan mastiffs are their most loyal friends. Tibet also provides a unique and excellent environment for the survival and reproduction of Tibetan mastiffs. The third kind is fruit harmony, which is a song and dance in which men and women gather around an altar of highland barley wine and shout step by step under the leadership of the organizer. Fruit harmony was widely spread in rural areas, and this kind of song and dance finally came to an end in the sound of happy stamping. The last one is Jon, also known as the dancing god. In the process of spreading, it gradually improved and formed the dance of the Lama Temple.
