Lhorong County, with an average elevation of about 3,700 meters, was once an important stop along the ancient Tea Horse Road and a significant channel for Tibetan-Han exchanges. Locals in Xobando Town injected elements of Tibetan folk dances into the Han lion dance introduced to the town in early years, and created a new performing art -- Xobando lion dance. Tengpa Anye, 69, who began to learn lion dance from his father at 13, is an inheritor of Xobando lion dance art. In the past, Tengpa had to make lion dance props by himself because the ready-made ones were unaffordable. Nowadays, thanks to improved living conditions and governmental supports, Tengpa and his students have not only access to professionally prepared props but also opportunities to appear at major performance events.

                      (240117) -- BINYANG, Jan. 17, 2024 (Xinhua) -- This combo photo shows craftsman Zou Yute making a bamboo dragon for Firecracker Dragon Festival in Binyang County in south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, on April 5, 2006 (L) and Jan. 16, 2024 (R), respectively. Zou Yute, a 70-year-old craftsman, is an inheritor of the bamboo dragon-making crafts and has been devoted to this art for over four decades. Firecracker Dragon Festival that can be dated back to more then 10 centuries ago is a traditional carnival celebrating Spring Festival in Binyang, when locals perform the firecracker dragon dance with a bamboo dragon. Unlike most dragon dances performed elsewhere, the audiences usually throw lit firecrackers toward the bamboo dragon during the dance to drive away evil spirits and pray for peace and prosperity for the new year. The event was included in the national intangible cultural heritage list in 2008. (Xinhua/Lu Boan)
