Here I am outside the church! Every year the Tibetan community rents out the basement of the church for their New Years celebration! I guess they have a pretty good relationship with the church! Roar!
There was a huge party in the basement of the church! Up on the stage there were some really neat thangka paintings along with a portrait of the Dali Lama. There were also prayer flags hanging from the ceiling. In front of the stage there was a ton of dancing and singing and overall partying! It was so awesome! I had fun stomping around on the dance floor with everyone! The Tibetans sure know how to ring in the new year! Roar! Here are some traditional Tibetan food products, buckwheat, wheat and yak butter, which were shared with visitors as part of the New Year ceremonies. Auspicious and delicious! Roar!
One other great thing about going to the new years celebration was all the free chai! I sure do love tea! Roar!
Going to the Tibetan New Y ear Celebration sure was fun! It's great to know that there are so any different communities thriving in New York City! Roar!
Roar! Thanks for sharing!
