What are the traditional customs of Tibetans?

1. Five burial methods: tower burial, cremation, water burial, earth burial and celestial burial. The tower burial is the most grand. 2. Hada: Tibetan compatriots especially like Hada and regard it as the most precious gift. Hada is a snow-white fabric, generally about twenty or thirty centimeters wide and one to two meters long. It is made of yarn or silk. Whenever there are festive events, or guests from far away come, or visit their elders, or go on a long journey to bid farewell, Hada should be presented as a sign of respect.

3. Eating habits: Baba made by highland barley, drinking butter tea and highland barley wine are the main foods for farmers and herdsmen. Ciba is fried noodles made by grinding highland barley or peas. Ciba is mixed with butter tea or highland barley wine, and kneaded into balls by hand for eating.

4. National Etiquette: When greeting guests, Tibetans should not only soak their hands in wine for three times, but also grab some highland barley in the grain barrel and throw it into the air for three times. At the banquet, the host takes a sip first, and then drinks it all at once. After the host finishes the first glass of wine, everyone can drink at will. When drinking tea, guests must wait for the host to bring the tea to them before reaching for it.
