Latest Events in Lhasa(August Updated)

The stage play "Princess Jincheng" integrates various art forms including the original ethnic music, dance, drama, and folk legends of the ethnic group in XI ZANG. It recounts the historical story of Princess Jincheng's marriage alliance into XI ZANG over 1,300 years ago. Unlike the grand epic "Princess Wencheng" which depicts Princess Wencheng's emotional journey upon entering XI ZANG, "Princess Jincheng" focuses on showcasing the real life and experiences of Princess Jincheng after her arrival in XI ZANG. She vigorously promoted the Tang-Tubo alliance, initiated the tea-horse trade, and brought benefits to the border people. Her actions had a profound impact on Tubo's economy, culture, agricultural production, and other aspects, winning the heartfelt love and admiration of the ethnic people in XI ZANG. Once again, she composed an epic of harmony between Han and XI ZANG that has been sung through the ages.

The starry sky serves as the backdrop, mountains and rivers form the stage—magnificent and soul-stirring in its grandeur. The classic epic masterpiece of XI ZANG culture, Princess Wencheng, is a large-scale real-life drama. Set against the natural landscapes of Lhasa, beneath the starry sky of the plateau sanctuary, it recounts the story of Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo King Songtsan, and their alliance through marriage. The entire production features majestic scenes, sweeping momentum, and dramatic twists, elevated by exquisite music, moving narratives, and profound emotions. It propels Chinese real-life performance art to unprecedented heights.
