Tibet symbolic handiwork: yak head





    you can always witness this yak heads in some places such as prayer flags and Mani piles. They are in lakeside of Namtso. So if you are willing to trek to Namtso, you will not only get charming view, but also find the unique yak head.  




    Tibetan also like yak very much, there are some unique copper yak sculptures in Beijing road of Lhasa. They call these as treasure of plateau.

Whole body of yak is precious: meat and milk is delicious; fur and leather can prevent cold and keep warm; bone can be made as handiwork; yak shit can be fuel after dry in the sun.



 
    In wild Tibet grassland, you always can witness some big part black, they are yak. No matter sunny or wind, they are slowly and sober. Sometimes, they lay on road, and although you press horn, they still not want to respond you; you have no way about these big and calm animals, but only get into a flap. However there are still some yaks die because the above scene. One time, we met about that, there was a beach blood on road; it was so tragic. What was worse, it was said by my friend that he had ever met twelve yaks hit by a tourist bus. You can image that scene would be so bad.     


    If you get to Tibet, you should never miss delicious yak beef;    there are various kinds of tastes. However, the most original and primary is wind beef. It means hanging fresh beef and making it dry naturally; and then it can be taste.

This handiwork which is made as yak head is delicate; you can take one of them when you get back from Tibet, and put it in schoolroom. How special it is!













This yak head is reality and beautiful. One kind of handiwork also stands for its culture and art, so it is yak head. Tibet is a special and charming city, Tibets charm and taste is not only its view and food, but also all things of that snow-plateau ground. Devout believers, unique Snow Mountain, charming lake, natural scene, handiwork
