Dance of Highland initially originated from the countryside of Yarlung Tsangpo River and the high regions of Shigatse and Ngari. Later in a Shoton Festival held in Lhasa, it was taken on the stage by a Tibetan Opera troupe. The dance which was perfected and standardized after that performance gradually became popular with all ranks in Lhasa. It is the first kind of dance accompanied by a six-string instrument; flute, bell chimes but other musical instruments are also used in this dance. The steps have been adjusted somewhat from the basic rhythm of the original dance and now it is often danced as a performance. The most welcome of these is the step-dance performed by the men. The steps of this dance are very unique, all the dancers wear hard leather shoes, and later bells are tied to their legs or feet to enhance the musical effect.
