What is the use time of the Buddha exhibition platform?

May of Tibetan calendar every year 14, 15, 16.

Every year from May 14 to 16 in the Tibetan calendar, it is the famous Xigaze Buddha Exhibition Festival in the snowy area. During this period, every morning, more than 800 lamas in Tashilhunpo Temple collectively recited scriptures, which sounded like Lei Zhen. After chanting and holding ceremonies, drum bands and honor guards composed of more than 200 lamas wearing holiday robes lined the roads.

In the sound of French horn and drum music, a Lama dressed as a "snow lion" walked at the front of the team. "Snow Lion" is white, dressed in gorgeous clothes, jumping while walking; After the "Snow Lion", two huge colorful embroidered Buddha statues were carried by more than 20 young and strong lamas, starting from the main hall of Tashilhunpo Temple and being carried along the circular road in the temple to the Buddha booth.

The Buddha Exhibition Festival is also a grand event for tourists.

Whenever the Buddha Exhibition Festival comes, farmers, herdsmen and monks from all regions of Shigatse will gather around Zhaxi with tents and food, and Tibetan compatriots from other Tibetan areas, Qinghai, Gansu and Sichuan will also come from afar with their families. They camped around Tashi according to the established rules.

In recent years, with the development of tourism, Zafo has been favored by more and more tourists at home and abroad. Many tourists made a special trip to Shigatse to observe this Buddhist festival and share the happiness of the people in Shigatse during the Buddhist Exhibition Festival.
