Out of the hotel entrance, I consulted the door the security guard, found his eyes have a lot of bloodshot eyes, whites part is that some kind of muddy yellow (later discovered that some of the Tibetans here have this phenomenon). We stopped the two taxi came to Shigatse free market, then the free market has been closing in, but this street is the security told us Street.
We are along the old streets of this Shigatse walked slowly this time has been more at 8 pm, but the sun is still hard at work in the sky, the whole Shigatse, or less bright. Suddenly, in our front right side of the road came a kind I have never heard the music, the kind of music his mouth, a mysterious, sly, cheerful ... ... we walked up to see a large group of local people to gather around, there are two artists are holding a musical instrument I have not seen before, sitting in the roadside to play. Many Tibetans are around them, and they definitely do not like the Tibetans in the donation in my imagination, but which seems to have been happy, and these two artists playing together with some of what the local children who were also Lie Zhezui Hehedixiao forward, listening to, the crowd is so quiet, did not bother ... ... When we raised the camera and camera when the crowd found us, they swept our friendly smile, and take the initiative to let out a seam, so that our good shooting, I asked around the Tibetans: "I can shoot them?" He's in and around a few Tibetans could not understand Chinese, they are just constantly washed us laugh, and then doing hand gestures please, this is what a friendly nation ah, their bold trace shy, introverted passion reveals a ... ...
Once again, we move forward, the houses on the roadside entrance to see several beautiful Tibetan girl (I personally think that the Tibetan people really are very beautiful, is really the kind of beautiful, especially the girl), and several are being children playing, accompanying the tour pulled out from Shanghai brought candy to give to those kids, they are shy slowly approached, the one reaching, grasping after spared much of the candy, and washed us laugh. We raised the camera and wanted to shoot it all down, but suddenly, all of them refused, there are several ran back to the house, there are several hands Dangzhao face, we can only respect them but gave up shooting. Later, in the streets of this encounter a middle-aged women to understand the Chinese language, she told us: "There are many foreigners in Tibet special shot where poverty and bad, and then out to the posters, saying that this is China Tibet. So we are not willing to say to the foreigners in Tibet is not good, because we are Chinese! "(This is the original, then have my tour and her husband to testify). Grabbing, the Tibetans were in my mind once tall and a lot!
Gradually, we will soon come to an end of this old street. In the street there is a branch of a small alley, is a very narrow kind of, get there a little row of golden prayer wheels turn in the fast downhill's were in the field under the bright sun shining. Sitting on the steps beside the cabin door four or five Tibetans for the elderly, who dedicated his right hand turn through the cylinder, each saying something, would the serenity and tranquility was like painting a scene, would the madding crowd really makes sense envy! Of the group walked up and ask for their photo, they happily agreed (they did not understand Chinese, we did not understand the Tibetan language, but the friendly facial expressions and gestures is interconnected.) Photo, we should thank them, and then prepared to left, suddenly, of which an elderly women to stand up, washed our gestures, mouth spoke did not understand the Tibetan language, and we were wondering the outcome of discussions is that she wants some supplies, so we took out a 5 yuan money to her, but, but she waved again and again, not much is it? ! Then came two to understand the Chinese language small group of young Tibetans, they told us: "She wants you to have an earlier photographs." It turned out that she thought we were using was an imaging camera, would like to ask for a photo it must be before the tourists to her. However, we have not rushed out photos ah, but, tomorrow, will return after visiting the Tashilhunpo Lhasa, had no time to give her the tour wisely thought the camera's small screen can see, it has just taken Video to go back to her, when she see their screen appears, to us are very satisfied with the Tao Xie, and in, and we say: "Bye-bye" later, with her partner began to round the houses clockwise walk, and struck a switch to get inside a row of prayer wheels, the sunset, this scene is really fascinating, we have this group of people known to a civilized city, with our thoughts to speculate Tibetans idea, but in fact our views, ideas, life, at this moment seems, is how much people disdain ah!
