Title: My Personal Impression on Tibet Culture and Elderly Health
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Tibet has always been known as“The Roof of the World”. Tibet attracted and enthralled visitors in the world, as visitors touched the magic of its mysteries, the altitude and scenery of Tibet were enough to take their breath away. Tibet had always maintained a distinct cultural, religious, linguistic and ethnic identity. Situated on the remote Tibetan plateau at the center of Asia and its average altitude was over 4,000 meter. Tibetans possessed a strong sense of independent history that was linked to this distinct identity and particularly its relationship with Tibetan Buddhism. Buddhism for Tibetan people was not only the dominant official ethnic religion but also principal philosophical identity, especially in Tibetan elderly highlanders.
