The 27-year-old, known by two names, Dolma and Yongzong, is a performer at Tusi manor in Shangri-La, southwestern China’s Yunnan province.
The manor offers an immersive experience of the time when Yunnan was under the governance of Tusi, imperial officials in the Yuan (1279–1368), Ming (1368–1644) and Qing (1644–1912) dynasties in China.
Yongzong sings and dances on stage.
She is from Deqen county, Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan, about four hours’ drive from Shangri-La.
Yongzong grew up as a farm girl and worked at the manor after graduating three years ago. She began as a waitress and was promoted to become a performer.
