People of various ethnic groups, dressed in festive attire, waved red flags and colorful bouquets, performed joyful folk dances, and welcomed the general secretary and expressed their sincere wishes to him.

The ancient city of Lhasa was filled with a festive atmosphere: from the airport to the place of residence, colorful flags fluttered on both sides of the main streets, representatives of different nationalities, holding red banners and khataks, shouted greetings in unison, expressing joy and gratitude.
