Tibet from China's Point of View // This is Western China
The China-Tibet conflict is far too complex for me to completely breakdown. As a person that lives in China, there are certain things that I can't even discuss about it, but in this video I talk about how I think China views Tibet. How the Han people see the Tibetans. How the government justifies their impact on the Tibetan people. Again, this is how I see it - it's not the opinions of every Chinese person. I'm not well educated on the topic. I've simply read some articles, discussed it with some locals, and made some observations. Please don't get angry at me. That being said, I'd love to hear your opinions, so please leave a civilized comment below.
This video takes place in the surrounding mountains of Xiahe (夏河), a town in the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu province. Many Tibetans live in this town, but you'll also find a large number of tourists visiting the enormous monastery that takes up a large percentage of the town. The Labrang Monastery literally divides the Chinese side and the much older Tibetan side of town. We arrived from Linxia (buses leave the south bus station every hour or so for about 30 RMB each - 2 hour ride). There are plenty of places to stay in Xiahe, but the Nirvana Hotel is a popular options with some western amenities (coffee, food, English speakers). If you're planning to travel here and have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments below.
