Home visit to a Tibetan family

Visiting a Tibetan home is a project with strong ethnic characteristics. Upon entering a Tibetan home, the elders present a hada at the door, and the women offer Qingke wine. Guests are then led to the main room, where they are offered hot butter tea, roasted barley flour, and fried foods. Qingke wine is freely available. There are songs, dances, and the presentation of hadas. Tibetan young men perform powerful dances and sing with deep voices, while Tibetan girls have graceful dance moves and sing with clear, high-pitched voices. Shangri-La has a wide variety of Tibetan songs and dances, the most representative being the Guozhuang dance of Jian Tang Town, the Nishiqing dance, Tacheng Reba, Deqin Xianzi dance, and the Yak dance, etc. These are all traditional performances in home visits to Tibetan people in Diqing Shangri-La. Tourists visiting Tibetan homes can also improvise and interact with local Tibetan families in performing arts.
