The Labrang monastery / Le monastère Labrang (Xiahe - Gansu - China)
(EN) The monastery was founded in 1709 by the first Jamyang Zhaypa, Ngawang Tsondru. It is Tibetan Buddhism's most important monastery town outside the Tibetan Autonomous Region.
Labrang Monastery is situated at the strategic intersection of four major Asian cultures—Tibetan, Mongolian, Han Chinese, and Chinese Muslim—was one of the largest Buddhist monastic universities. In the early 20th century, it housed several thousand monks. Labrang was also a gathering point for numerous annual religious festivals, supported an active regional marketplace where Han Chinese artisans rubbed shoulders with Hui merchants and nomadic Tibetan highlanders, and was the seat of a Tibetan power base that strove to maintain regional autonomy through the shifting alliances and bloody conflicts that took place between 1700 and 1950.
In April 1985 the Assembly Hall burned down. It was replaced and the new building was consecrated in 1990

On peut retourner, en une heure de promenade le long d'une rivière, à Tongren. En chemin, j'ai pu visiter le 2ème monastère de Wutun, passer un moment avec des vieilles femmes tournant autour d'un chörten (108 tours) et assister à la fabrication de grandes statues.

Voyage en bus de Xining à Tongren (Qinghaï, Chine)
Un beau trajet de bus dans une région très aride et plutôt pauvre, le Qinghaï, qui faisait partie de l'ancienne province tibétaine de l'Amdo. Les maisons sont parfois en briques, mais le plus souvent en boue et terre séchée. On trouve de nombreuses cultures : champs en terrasses, arbres fruitiers. Plusieurs minorités y habitent : huis (Chinois musulmans, Dongxiang, Tibétains etc). Les visages et tenues ressemblent beaucoup à ceux d'Amérique du Sud. La fin du parcours s'effectue au milieu des prairies d'altitude, peuplées de yacks et de temples de nomades.

Red Song in Beijing's Jingshan Park Was Banned

After the Auditorium Plaza of Chongqing set up signs
banning red songs, the Red Song in Beijing Jingshan Park,
which had lasted for many years, was also
banned at the weekend.
March 18th was the first Sunday since Bo Xilai was
removed from his position.
Apple Daily reported that, every Sunday, people used to
get together for singing and dancing in Jingshan Park.
A large number of people, as always, went to the park,
singing opera, dancing, playing games and so on.
However, there are no Mao portraits or banners,
neither any singing in unison, but only a band playing there.
According to several people who came along earlier,
some people were arrested and taken away.
Also on Sunday, thousands of people gathered in the region of
Western China's Qinghai Province, where Tibetans are living.
They were holding funeral for Resona Taji, a farmer who
died as a result of self-immolation in protest against China's policy in Tibet.
They were protesting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)
authorities' oppression of Tibetans and Tibetan culture.
It is said that this was the largest of the local protests.
Resona Taji, a 44-year-old farmer, self-immolated on Saturday
near the center of Longwu town, Tongren County, Qinghai Province.
From last Wednesday through to Saturday, there were at least
three Tibetans and monks who self-immolated in the Tibetan regions of Sichuan and Qinghai.
In addition, the media in mainland China has reported that,
on March 18th in the early morning,
a Ferrari sports car was involved in an accident at the east
approach road of Baofusi Bridge in the Fourth Ring Road of Beijing,
causing the death of one male occupant and injury of
the two female occupants of the car.
Although this news was at first open, it was quickly shielded by
what are known as the four portals in mainland China, Sina, Netease, Sohu, Tencent, in a short time.
Chinese netizens had their suspicions: surely there must be secrets
for the Ferrari car accident story to be blacked out so quickly.
It widely rumored that the deceased is the son of a CCP minister.
Some even say that the dead man may be Bo Xilai's son, Bo Guagua.
A netizen named @ wenyunchao said: a few years ago,
the Hong Kong media disclosed the fact that Jia Qinglin,
CPPCC Chairman of CCP, had an illegitimate child.
Now he should be 20 years old, which is a good age for drag racing.
