Litang | Letong Ancient Town

| Letong Ancient Town. ◾️Letong Ancient Town, a Tibetan village with thousands of households, is located in Litang County. The ancient town of Letong has a history of thousands of years and is a pure land on the Sichuan-Tibet Plateau. The entire Litang is a county town consisting of thousands of Tibetan villages. ◾️The Letong Ancient Town has unified the planning of Renkang Ancient House, Renkang Ancient Street and Thousand-House Tibetan Village through the reconstruction of the old urban area. It is composed of more than 4,000 Tibetan houses in 13 Tibetan villages. It is the most concentrated and largest group of Thousand-House Tibetan Villages in the Tibetan area. ◾️There are many photo shops in the ancient town. The ancient streets of the ancient town have a strong Tibetan style and are suitable for taking photos. I was deeply impressed by the 318 Travel Memory Museum, which records many stories of travelers traveling in Tibet, rather than simply driving on 318. The Kham People's Museum has a history of hundreds of years, and every brick and stone here is steeped in hundreds of years of Kham culture. There are many distinctive Tibetan jewelry stores in the ancient street. They are elegant, colorful, and full of ethnic style, and are very beautiful. ◾️Tsangyang Gyatso Museum: More than 300 years ago, Tsangyang Gyatso left many famous poems about Litang, which brought a romantic atmosphere to Litang. The museum is not big. It was converted from an old Tibetan house. Ding Zhen also worked here. After becoming famous, Ding Zhen joined a state-owned enterprise and worked as a tour guide in this museum. Renkang Ancient House, also known as the "Former Residence of the Seventh Dalai Lama", is the best-preserved ancestral temple in Letong Ancient Town.
