Yak Museum of Tibet

Very good museum, free to visit, not in downtown Lhasa. In the new area of the Lhasa River, next to the gymnasium, it is not easy to find because of the surrounding construction is blocked by fences! I have seen the exhibition as if I am in the pastoral area ～

When you arrive in Lhasa, you must go to the yak museum to understand the relevant knowledge, and also know that yak is inseparable from the Tibetan people, with strong interest, long knowledge, super cost-effective, great.

Just in time for the "clear sky" photography exhibition. A worthwhile trip, yak is an indispensable part of the Tibetan people. There is no Tibetan without yak, and there are yak wherever there is Tibetan.

Small, but it's really good, worth seeing.

The Tibetan yak museum is based on the importance of yak in the life of the plateau and its status in the plateau culture. This is not an animal museum, but a cultural anthropology exhibition hall that takes yak as the carrier and expresses the history and culture of the plateau, reflects the relationship between people and the environment of the plateau, and displays the wisdom and creation of the plateau people. Nearly 50% of the museum's collections are donated by people from all walks of life, which is unique in museums across the country.

The Tibetan yak museum in Lhasa's new district is like a palace built for yak, which brings together many exhibits on yak growth and domestication. Visiting the yak museum is because yak culture is one of the oldest and extensive Tibetan folk culture, and yak culture generally reflects the wisdom and creation of the people of the plateau. It is hoped that the yak museum can go to the mainland of the motherland and go to the world, and spread the " yak spirit" of generosity, loyalty, compassion, tenacity, courage and dedication in the way of roving exhibitions, so that more people can know the people living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
