Tibet is a beautiful and remote part of China, with many unique cultural heritages. The Potala Palace stands under the blue sky and white clouds. The yak grazing on the snowy plateau is the king of the plateau. When he closes his eyes in the incense mist of the Sutras hall, he suddenly hears the truth of chanting sutras. The distant pilgrimage path, walking in it, small and firm, speaks of the long journey and the immortal faith.
