Dalai Lama
In order to really know a place you must at least know some basics of it's believings. The Dalai Lama is the most important person of the tibetians so here is the story.
His Holiness the 14th the Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso, is the head of state and spiritual leader of the Tibetan people. He was born Lhamo Dhondrub on 6 July 1935, in a small village called Taktser in northeastern Tibet. Born to a peasant family, His Holiness was recognized at the age of two, in accordance with Tibetan tradition, as the reincarnation of his predecessor the 13th Dalai Lama, and thus an incarnation Avalokitesvara, the Buddha of Compassion.
The Dalai Lamas are the manifestations of the Bodhisattva (Buddha) of Compassion, who chose to reincarnate to serve the people. Lhamo Dhondrub was, as Dalai Lama, renamed Jetsun Jamphel Ngawang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso - Holy Lord, Gentle Glory, Compassionate, Defender of the Faith, Ocean of Wisdom. Tibetans normally refer to His Holiness as Yeshe Norbu, the Wishfulfilling Gem or simply Kundun - The Presence.
The enthronement ceremony took place on February 22, 1940 in Lhasa, the capital of Tibet.

Situated just 20 minutes from downtown Shenyang, it is a virtual oasis of serenity. Xiuhu Lake, the area's main attraction, provides swimming, fishing, and boating during the summer, and ice skating during the winter. Huishan, Davangshan, and Shirenshan Mountains surround the lake and are great spots for hikers, campers and skiers. Boat rental shops, restaurants and lodges are available for the tourists.
Daheishan(Big Black Mountain), known as the first mountain in southern Liaoning province, is also called the Big Monk Mountain. It has been praised as “the wonder on the southeast corner of Liaoning” in China and is a huge tourist draw for hiking and camping. Besides its lush forest of more than 500 different plant species, this national park is also known for its ancient architecture. Xiangshui Temple, Zhaoyang Temple, Tang Wang Palace and the Sha City are all within its rugged, coastline boundaries.
Located at the southwest corner of Xing Hai Square, this park has more than 400 crocodiles from three continents and includes breeds such as the famed Nile crocodile and the Yangtze Crocodile from Anhui province. The park resembles a tropical rain forest and covers more than 10,000 square meters. You can enjoy live crocodile performances, as well as Thai musical acts. If you are feeling a bit daring, you can taste crocodile meat, or purchase crocodile skin products.
Located near the Qian Shan Mountains, this massive reserve sits almost 600 meters above sea level and encompasses three sections: Dragon Hill, Small River Valley and Yingna River Valley. Despite its height, it enjoys a temperate climate, allowing plant and animal life to flourish. The reserve harbors 810 plant species and 196 different forms of wildlife, many of which are endangered. It also features Xianren Cave and its famous karsts rock formations dating back to the Pre-Sinian Period.
The name "Xiangshui" refers to the temple's famous echoing water. Erected in the Tang Dynasty (618-907), this Taoist temple features a 40-meter-long natural cave, from which a limpid spring flows. The water rushes down to the mouth of a green toad from a stone wall, emitting gurgling noises which reverberates in the valley. Chao Yang Temple and Guan Yin Pavilion are not far from Xiangshui Temple. Religious rites are often performed at these sites, which are worth sightseeing.
