- 5 Days in Tibet: 3rd Day, Namtso Lake (2/2)
Jesus Mtnez Valencia has added a photo to the pool:
"Namtso Lake, the bright pearl of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, is known as one of the three holy lakes in Tibet. Endowed with pure water and stunning landscapes, it has been the holy land of Tibetan Buddhists and Mecca of the hiking enthusiasts from all over the world.
Placing at an elevation of 4,718 meters, and covers an area of 1,940 square kilometers, Namtso Lake ranks the second largest saltwater lake of its kind in China (after Qinghai Lake) and the highest altitude saltwater lake in the world. The water here is crystal-clear blue. Clear skies join the surface of the lake in the distance, creating an integrated, scenic vista. Soul of every visitor who has ever been here seems to be cleansed by the pure lake water". - 5 Days in Tibet: 3rd Day, Namtso Lake (1/2)

一般認為 清朝官窯瓷器從嘉慶之後就乏善可陳。其實道光皇帝影響了官窯的風格，這件道光官窯就有這樣的特色。
一是 開光 與其形狀 極似台灣清代廟宇的裝飾
二是題材 平易近人 生活化
三是回復雍正留白多 悠雅 不繁 的特色
四 開發新裝飾技法 本件以雕瓷加藍釉做出圖案
道光官窯燒造不多尤其花瓶 極少 - From generation to generation the Tibetan tradition "lives on", Tibet 2012

Shaman Festival is a grand and festive occasion for local people to show their devotion and gratitude to the Mountain God.
Every summer, the Shaman Festival is held in Rebkong, Amdo. This important ceremony honors the local mountain god and requests that he bestows good health on the villagers and a successful harvest on the local community. All of the local villagers participate in the ceremony: women dance, men beat drums, boys perform dramas, and girls show off the traditional dress of the region. The festival is lively and colorful, with everyone dressed in colorful robes. The local mountain god is even invited to join the ceremony, and an oracle serves as his medium. - From generation to generation the Tibetan tradition "lives on", Tibet 2012
