For many tourists, Tibet is a magical and must-go destination. Snowy mountains, golden-roofed monasteries, White walls and the brown-red pigmented wooden structure have charm under blue sky and white clouds .Explore Tibet Team, a professional Tibet travel agency, introduces the traditional Tibetan buildings to you.

Looked at from afar, we first see brown and white Tibetan houses, row upon row. Tibetan people like to decorate their house with cedar wood because of the natural color of the rustic charm of cedar wood. Cedar is a very scarce and valuable timber, and the original color of the wood print is very beautiful, so we only need to varnish the surface of the first layer without adding any paints to the wood. The traditional Tibetan buildings are the treasure of the Tibetan ancestors for their future generation. The roof of Tibetan house is flat so as to conserve heat, and Tibetans like to build many windows so as to let sunlight in.
The houses of Tibetans are just like a folk art museum. The interior decoration of Tibetan houses is a fascinating mixture of the Han and Tibetan cultures and arts. You can see many paintings of auspicious symbols everywhere such as dragon and phoenix, flowers, birds and clouds, and each painting is finely crafted. The exquisite craftsmanship not only can show the special aesthetic interest in Tibet, but also can embody the gorgeousness and richness.
Besides, most traditional Tibetan buildings contain many Buddhist elements. No matter the Buddhist wheels, or dragons on the roof, you can see them everywhere of monasteries in Tibet.
Due to the complexity of the handcraft work, the construction of such house takes normally several years to complete. Comes and experience this magical world of culture with .Explore Tibet Team.
