Tibetan Opera
Tibetan Opera is hailed as "the living fossil of Tibetan culture." Various exaggerated masks are the highlight of Tibetan Opera and identify the roles the actors play. For example, a red mask represents the king; a green, the queen; a yellow, Lamas and deities.
Tibetan Opera boasts a history of more than 600 years, about 400 years longer than Peking Opera. Based on Buddhist stories and Tibetan history, the performance of Tibetan Opera follows fixed procedures, including religious rituals, singing, dancing, story telling and blessing ceremonies.
