Labrang monastery, a temple located in Daxia River, has more than300years of history, and is hailed as World Tibetology University. Its monastic education and management system are huge and systematic. From the beginning to now, it has attracted a large number of Buddhist monks and religious believers to gather here. Many scholars have done research on the Labrang monastery, and numerous achievements have been made in this field. The contents are so plentiful that they cause people to evaluate this temple from different angles.A conch sound came from the temple and awakened the sleeping soul. I walked on the way from the temple to the colleges, and walked into the surrounding the masses of believers, to know a special and ordinary village named "Tawa". This kind of villages does everything possible to contribute to the development of the temple. There is a direct and close link between the Tawa and Labrang monastery.I am interested in this relationship and walked around the villages and temples, to find out the Tawa’s notion, history and future.The development of Labrang temple and Tawa gradually became clear and interdependent. Labrang’s existence made their soul pinned; and thanks to the Labrang monastery and growth, it has become more beautiful. The temple and Tawa are. blended into a harmonious whole, religious culture and secular culture.Labrang monastery and Tawa have created a peaceful state of Xiahe county. Tawa is a typical Tibetan village.
