Since ancient times, the hardworking and brave Tibetan people have lived on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the roof of the world. Over thousands of years, the Tibetan ethnic group has created a splendid culture through its struggles against harsh natural environments, enriching the traditional cultural treasury of the Chinese nation and making positive contributions to Chinese and even human culture. It holds a unique and significant position in the history of world culture.
To enable more Chinese and foreign friends to truly and vividly understand and appreciate the profound and extensive traditional culture of the Tibetan ethnic group and experience the mysterious charm of the snowy land, organizations such as the Beijing People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, the China Buddhist Association, China Central Television (CCTV), and Beijing Television have jointly organized the "China Tibetan Culture Car Expedition." Our company has selected materials from this event to edit and publish a set of VCDs (including three discs) and has paired it with the book Tibetan Buddhist Culture.
