introduce
There are many rivers and lakes in Tibet, and fish resources are also very rich, but most Tibetans do not eat fish, which is mainly influenced by traditional concepts. There are a series of dragon gods in Tibetan Buddhism, and in the records of Bon religion classics, dragon gods generally refer to fish, which is the main reason why Tibetans do not eat fish. Therefore, for a long time, Tibet's fishery was underdeveloped. But there are exceptions. People living in Junba Village in the lower reaches of the Lhasa River not only eat fish, but also make a living from fishing for generations. Junba Village is a unique fishing village in Tibet.
There are 82 households and 371 people living in Junba Village. As long as there are men in these families, there will be cowhide boats, because fishing is all for men. There are more than 60 cowhide boats in Junba Village. These ships are both means of transportation and means of production.
The production, sideline and life of the people in Junba Village almost all revolve around fishing, and even their recreational activities are related to fishing. The men in the village will dance a kind of "fruit dance". "Guo" in Tibetan means boat, and "fruit dance" is also a boat dance. The dance can also be regarded as a unique folk dance in Junba Village.
