My Dream Place--TIBET


For centuries, travellers to China have told tales of magical landscapes and surprising creatures. Chinese civilization is the world's oldest and today it's largest with 1.4 billion people. We have 56 distinct ethnic groups, one of them is the Tibetan.

Tibet is a magical place. Unfortunately, I have never been there, but it's still attract me for such a long time.

Tibet is located in Southwest of China. It's famous for the unique naturel and the culture. At the 7th century AD, Song Zanganbu, the leader of Tibet, unified the Tibetan. Then, in the 641, he married a princess Wen Cheng of Tang Dynasty in China. From that time, Tibet and China keep in touch each other. The princess Wen Cheng brought the Buddism and the science technology to Tibet, she promoted the development of Tibet. However, Song Zanganbu accepted a position of Tang Dynasty government. At the 13th century AD, in the Yuan Dynasty, China unified the Tibetan.

Tibet is the home of wildlife. There are lots of  large creatures, like yak and the tibet antelope. The average elevation of Tibet is over 4000 metres, oxygen in air is much less than the normal, people are gasping for breath, but animals live there very well.

Tibetan religion is one kind of the buddhism. It has a unique character for over 1000 years history. Its mixed of buddhism and another much older beliefs. They have their own language, writing and culture.

For me, it's really hard to explain what I have known about the Tibet in English. I just wanna tell all of you, Tibet is and will be part of China, but also belongs to all of the world.
