Chamdo Town
Tibet Autonomous Region
, is the political, economic, cultural, and transportation center of Chamdo Region. Chamdo in Tibetan means estuary. This town lies at the conjunction of two main tributaries of the Lancang (Mekong) River, thus getting its name. As the most important portal to Tibet, it has a superb geographical location.
Chamdo Town has a glorious and long history as well as miraculous culture. This area is mainly inhabited by Tibetans. Studies suggest that human existence in the area dates back to the Neolithic Period
over 4,000 years ago. In the Tang Dynasty (618-907), this remote town fell into the control of the Tubo Kingdom, which quickly became strong at that time. This town experienced many changes and was given different names through the following dynasties. From the period ruled by Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) it has developed into a vitally important town and traffic pass.
Chambaling Monastery is a scenic spot when you come to Chamdo Town. This well-preserved monastery was found in 1444, with hundreds of magnificent Buddha statues and marvelous murals. The religious dancing in this monastery is widely renowned, featured with grand scenes, powerful postures, ferocious masks and dazzling costumes.
Transportation to the area has always been a problem. In 1995, Bamda Airport
was built, only 136 kilometers (about 84.5 miles) from Chamdo Town, and international lines have been opened. Travel therefore is much more convenient.
