Summer in Lhasa

Summer is the best season of the year in Lhasa.

Flowers and trees quietly take on a new look, sprout vigorously, spread branches and leaves, and blossom and bear fruit.

People gradually took off their thick winter clothes and put on spring clothes and summer clothes, and their bodies seemed to be lighter and more flexible.

Birds are also more active, and it's not just sparrows that are heard in winter. Yellow ducks play, chase, roll, occasionally flap their wings and dance in droves in Longwangtan Scenic Resort Scenic Holiday Park, beside the Lhasa River, which is amazing. There are also unknown birds that fly from tree to tree with a whoosh because they are disturbed. From time to time, they get together to call friends and make noise, as if discussing something.

"In April, the world is beautiful everywhere, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple." These two ancient poems show that the high altitude environment has delayed the blooming of peach blossoms in mountain temples.

Lhasa also delayed the arrival of spring and summer because of its high altitude.

Summer in Lhasa has the characteristics of both spring and autumn in the mainland, and its spring and autumn are often arbitrarily occupied and compressed by winter, which makes people indignant. Summer in Lhasa is full of spring, flowers and trees sprout and grow, the climate is pleasant, the cool breeze is blowing gently, the trees are shaded, and tourists are weaving. ...

These have surprised many foreign tourists.

The local people will hold a lively ceremony to celebrate the fruit festival. Ciba and highland barley wine, flying ribbons, snow-white Hada, beating gongs and drums, drinking and having fun, pots and pans, men, women and children, laughing and laughing all show people's joy and happiness.

The local highland barley wine is brewed from highland barley. Barley is similar to barley. When it was in the ground, it had long awns and stabbed its face and hands, which made people afraid. Almost every local family will brew highland barley wine, and everyone will drink highland barley wine. However, due to the different skills of winemakers, the taste and quality of the brewed highland barley wine will be very different. Sweet wine is the best, followed by cloudy and sour wine. There are also companies investing in the production of highland barley wine in Lhasa.

Highland barley wine is similar to beer, which seems to have a light taste, but its stamina is not small. People who drink a little often lose their tongues when their stamina attacks, and they are incoherent, stumbling and need help. In the future, even if others warmly advise, they will not dare to drink more. Ciba, on the other hand, is a kind of food that can be eaten by grinding fried highland barley into powder and kneading it with butter tea by hand. Butter is boiled from milk, and butter tea is a local drink boiled from butter and tea. Can be drunk for guests, with mellow taste and endless aftertaste.

Local people often visit Karin in summer. Choose a sunny day, in a wide forest or grass, call friends, bring a bunch of snacks, boxes of highland barley wine or beer, set up tents, set tables and chairs, get together, chat or play cards, mahjong, drink or sing and dance, chatter endlessly, people are buzzing, so happy and lively! In such a happy scene, even people who are usually taciturn can't help but be infected, change their former formality and start talking and laughing with friends.

Not only is it sunny here, but it often rains in summer. However, the rain here usually comes and goes quickly, and it will never be annoying and disturbing.

As soon as I saw a large dark cloud floating not far above my head, I had to find a place to hide from the rain. Otherwise, you are likely to get soaked because you can't avoid it in time! If you are in poor health, you may catch a cold and get sick. But usually it will clear up soon after a heavy rain. Everything seems to be the same except the rain left on the ground, leaves, railings or roofs.

In summer, the mountains that are not too high or too far will be lush, while the mountains that are higher and farther are covered with snow, which will not melt all year round and shine in the sun! Stepping into the stop is both fascinating and scary.

On the roads and streets of Lhasa, we often see some devout believers kowtowing. They are dressed simply, armed to the teeth and wear protective tools with their hands. Their bodies are pushed forward from kneeling to using protective gear with both hands until they all get down, face the ground, stretch forward with their hands on the ground, stay for a while, get up quickly and repeat a set of actions, and so on. I heard that some people do this all year round. These people and what they have done are amazing and admirable. Only those who are determined to devote themselves to Buddhism can do it and persist.

There are many temples, monks, devout believers, worshippers and tourists in Lhasa. Jokhang Temple, Jokhang Temple and drepung monastery are all famous. The most famous building is Potala Palace, which was built by Songzan Gambo, the leader of Tubo at that time, to marry Princess Wencheng. Tall buildings stand on the slopes of Lhasa, attracting thousands of tourists from all directions every year.

In summer, everything here is revived, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, the climate is pleasant and tourists are weaving. People here work hard, live a lively life, enjoy all the gifts of nature, wave upon wave, people envy! Many people want to come here in their lifetime and feel the magical summer here.
