Local calligraphy works were presented as gifts. The event attracted about 10,000 people, Bayi’s tourism officials said.

Nyingchi is famous for its dreamy pink visual feast of peaches, whereas Bayi’s Gala Village is known in Xizang as the “First Village of Peach Blossoms.”

Lulang Township, dubbed the “Switzerland of the East,” is in Bayi and is known for its large-scale, year-round green, lush, and pristine woods, as well as azaleas that bloom all over the mountains. In June, the alpine meadow of Lulang brims with green grass and wildflowers, creating a beautiful image. It is also a summer resort where visitors ride horses and enjoy hiking and archery in a sea of flowers and meadows.
