His most recent journey led him to the Langmu Temple in Gannan, where he documented the grand Buddha Worshipping Festival, a sacred annual event.
Every year, thousands of monks walk through the monastery’s surroundings, carrying towering Thangka Buddha statues to a revered platform. Amidst the crisp mountain air and stunning natural beauty, Tibetan pilgrims, dressed in colorful traditional attire, gather to offer their harvests and prayers, creating a mesmerizing blend of devotion and culture.

His beautiful photos reveal monks walking in solemn processions, the golden glow of ceremonial fires against the snow, and the powerful connection between people and nature.
The festival is not just a religious event but a vibrant celebration of faith and unity, set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of Tibet’s towering peaks. With each image, Hu Guoqing preserves the essence of this sacred tradition, offering the world a rare glimpse into the soul of Tibetan culture.
