So..In this entry, i would like to share to all of you a few traditional dance in Tibet..

The first one is Guoxie Dance. Guoxie means village in Tibetan. Guoxie is a circle dance performed by a group of people in Tibet. Guoxie dance is popular in rural Tibet. During the performing Guoxie, men and women dance hand in hand singing in rotation. Besides that people who are not dancing in the rotation will cheering from all around to give support to the dancer. At festivals, people in Tibet will dance and sing from sunset to sunrise. Guoxie dance also may be the most common and unique dance in Tibet because all people in Tibet know how to perform this dance. But the most well-known Guoxie dance version is found in Shannan.
