Yak dung art: A unique tribute

On the vast grasslands of Nagqu, which is about 4,500 meters above sea level, herders have crafted stunning sculptures and vibrant paintings using an unexpected material: yak dung. The artworks celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Xizang Autonomous Region in China. To herdsmen here, dried yak dung can be used as fuel for heating and cooking. Blending tradition with ingenuity, and showcasing the deep connection between nomadic culture and the land, people say this is a genuine and sincere tribute, straight from the heart of the plateau!
