My Hometown -- Xiangcheng

My hometown is Xiangcheng (Chaktreng in Tibetan). It is a beautiful place!

My hometown's mountains, grass, and water are all very beautiful. There are high high mountains. On the mountain tops, white snow is piled up so that it looks like the mountains wear hats. The trees dress the mountainside beautifully. Crystal clear water flows from the mountain -- it'll refresh your spirit. If you come to my hometown, you will be a warmly welcomed guest. They'll use tsamba and butter tea to feed you. On the endless grassland, there are many colored flowers. Cows and sheep wander about on their own and play on the grassland.

I love my hometown, and even more, I love my hometown's beautiful scenery!
