Tibetan clothing not only reflects the cultural characteristics of the Tibetan people, but also contains factors such as natural environment, economic type, historical background, production technology, and aesthetic concepts. It not only reflects the development and changes of the times, but also reflects the exchange and collision of foreign cultures.
Pulan County in Ngari region of Tibet is located at the junction of the "Three Kingdoms" of China, India and Nepal. Its unique natural environment, folk customs, production and lifestyle have formed Pulan's unique ancient costumes.
Pulan's "Xuan" clothes are mainly composed of headgear, necklace, earrings, robes, etc. The clothes are complex and in different order. There are a variety of precious jewelry accessories, all of which are made of gold and silver, coral, pearl, agate, beeswax, turquoise, etc.
In 2008, it was included in China's national intangible cultural heritage list.
Today, the costume has been rescued and protected by the people, and it has become a representative costume with historical, cultural and artistic value in the Ali area.
Whenever there are major festivals, local women dance in "Xuan" clothes, and the long melody is accompanied by the sound of jewelry touching, conveying the past and present stories that happened on the "roof of the world".
The Pulan "Xuan" clothing not only carries the ancient history with long history, but also conveys the legendary story of Yin Zhuo Ram "Flying Sky", the princess of the local Prince Norsang, to the folks. name.
