Tibettan Hero - King Gesar
Seven years ago,I heard that the longest heroic epic in the world is in East Tibet in China. Storytellers still exist and are making new story which is incomparable tale in the world as 'live epic'. 100 vivid mask dance is performed, no less than 1000 tradition pictures are drawn,and brave horse race are competed by shouting 'we are heroic descendant' People respected the legendary hero instead of highest priest who is not allowed worship. However, as for a heroic sacred peak retreat the glacier by climate warming, are developed gold ore, prairie is destroyed, and stock farming people are emigrated to the town. A legendary hero is alive as a hope of people of east Tibet.
