As night descended and the evening lights illuminated the surroundings, the urban nightscape of Yushu City, Qinghai Province, resembled a shimmering Milky Way. On King Gesar Square, people of different ethnic groups gathered in a circle to perform the vibrant Gorchom dance.

The sculpture of King Gesar stands in the center of the square. This legendary hero appears to be gazing at the prosperity of Yushu City today. The epic of King Gesar has been celebrated here for thousands of years. Today, tradition and modernity are integrated perfectly here, narrating the story about the city’s inheritance and development.
