The Tibetan Nomads (Tibet, China) (13/20)

The Tibetan nomads, known as “Dokpas,” have lived in the high-altitude plateaus of Tibet for centuries. They are traditionally yak herders, moving with their animals between pastures in the Tibetan Plateau. Their lifestyle is harsh and requires resilience to survive in one of the most extreme environments on earth. Tibetan nomads continue to practice their traditional way of life, living in tents known as “yak wool tents” and following ancient religious practices.
