I visited Samdo in November 2012, I feel in love with the place even though i had to watch a friend medivac out to Kathmandu with severe sickness. It was such a magical place. Loved the video, would love to see that place again.
At the beginning around 30 seconds: This is a typical Tibetan mother calling her child to either come home or I will come and break your leg. I have heard this so many times from my mother or mothers of my friends and neighbors.
As the title of Video states, it's in Samagaun (Rhoe) and not Samdo. This archery festival so called "Dashang" is held yearly in 3rd month of tibetan calendar at Muguthanka in Samagaun. Samdo is about 2 hours far away from Samagaun. Both Samagaun and Samdo belong to Ward No. 1 of Tsum-Nubri Rural Municipality.
Excellent. I spent several mos. below Manaslu in a village and always wanted to know how it is in the realms above. Now I know. And yes, it is Remote. Few know the importance of archery in the Himalayan cultures. It is beloved as a sport in Sikkim as well.
such kind of video every time I see always feel sad..that...we tibeto burman people's are always spent a hardship life in rurel Nepal.we even don't know that which angel use and can say we r proude to be nepali.nepalese government never reach that place nor they come to think about how much we need education and sustainable work for livelihood.sooooo pitiful .....even we always trying to smily when foreigner met......still l love my country Nepal💔
Hallo Ed, fantastische film!!! Dank je voor het posten/filmen. Klein foutje: Dit is in Samagoan gefilmt en niet in Samdo. Ik ben net terug van onze Manaslu Trek en zijn precies tijdens dit Festival in Samagaon aangekomen. Deels vele bekende gezichten! :-) Toen wij daar waren hielden ze ook nog een touwtrek competitie. Dank je nogmaalsvoor het posten. Groet Marc
It’s actually Tibetan Archery competition not Nepal. This is culture of Tibet. People in this video are all Tibetan refugees in Nepal. That’s all, we don’t call ourselves Nepali.
They are totally Tibetan.,,look,, the way they talk, look they of their traditional Chupa!,, their day to day activities and just look at how they live.,, look at their Hauses,,, same to same as in my village in Tibet.,, i miss my home in Tibet.,,Boe GYALLO !...
Most of them are Tibetan. Didn't you see the lady who spoke perfect Tibetan in the beginning of the video? The people from Samdo have their relatives in Tibet across the border as Samdo was part of Tibet about 150 years ago when the Nepalese invasion and occupied in with many areas of Tibet. Many of the Tibetan refugees in India crossed via Samdo and even stayed a couple of years before moving to India as Tibetans feared that Nepal too could be occupied by China.
@@petagonkyi Ha ha Rui village (now a part of China) is bordered with Samdo was part of Nepal. Later it was taken by China from Nepal as a mutual understanding of exchage of land between these two countries. Most of the inhabitants of Rui migrated to Samdo as they did not want to become Chinese. Speaking Tibetan accent does not always mean they are Tibetan. So the people in these video are Nepali not Tibetan. Also you may not know I am also inhabitant of Manaslu region so don't argue that these people are Tibetan.
@@MinsCreation Politically (citizen) they are Nepali but ethnically they are Tibetan. Nepali living in India and overseas say they are ethnically Nepali whether they are citizen of India, US or any other country.
i am from there and i proud of being nepali BUT from tibetan origin we came from tibet i dont think samdo inhabitants are not tibetan is appropiate, yes the land is nepal but the people came from tibet, i am sorry but you gotta understand bhai...
Do not confuse ethnicity and nationality. These people belong to the Tibeto-Burman ethnic group but they are Nepalese citizens and Nepal is their nation. You would not call an Anglo-Saxon person from Britain a German would you just because his ancestors came from Saxony?
They are all Tibetan land and people which Tibetan lost to Nepal in the 18th and 19th centuries following the Gurkha invasion of Tibet bordering the Kyirong and Zonga. Tibetan govt minted the silver coins/currency from Nepal as Nepalese were known for making statues, building temples since the Nepali princess Brikruti became one of the wives of Tibetan king Songtsen Gampo in 7AD. Over the years Nepali goldsmith started adulterating silver with other metals for profits since the days of the Malla dynasty. Tibetans govt asked the Nepalese king to control the Nepali goldsmith use pure silver as per the contract. Malla dynasty was overthrown by Gorkha or Shah dynasty. Tibetan made the same request the Shah dynasty instead of helping nullified the values of coins in Nepal and also said no compensation will be paid. (Tibetan currency has been in use for business for centuries in Nepal like a US$ today.) Then following argument Nepali invaded and occupied many Tibetan region which is very obvious from the people and names of the places. many of these families still have the documents of their forefathers being Tibetan citizens from tax records.
@@petagonkyi for your kind information nepali gorkha peoples never invade tibet and they are nepali more than 58 percent nepali people look like mongolin but anyway nepali people love tibet spread love thankyou
Tibetan have been weaned off their martial arts since 9th AD. Tibetans was great warriors from 6-9AD (pre-Buddhist), Tibetan soldiers have marched as far as Bagdad in 8AD and controlled as far as Xian (China) was then the capital of China. Rise of Buddhism has made a Tibetans a sitting duck. Even a small kingdom invaded and could do nothing.
