Travel to the capital Lhasa part 2: The story of Cong Chuan Van Thanh is recreated through the world's highest real-life show staged by director Truong Yimou to tell about the journey to Tufan of a royal princess. During her reign, she married Songtsen Gampo, the first Tan Pu of the Thobun Empire, thereby establishing peace between the two nations during Songtsen Gampo's reign.
To show his love and welcome the princess, King Tang built the POTALA palace - the highest royal palace in the world - then the residence of the Lamas.
Besides Songtsen Gampo and his other wife, the Nepalese princess Bhrikuti Devi, Princess Wencheng is considered one of the people who brought Buddhism to Tibet. In addition, she is also considered an incarnation of Da La Bodhisattva. Despite its important role in both Tibetan and Chinese culture, the image of Princess Wencheng is gradually being turned into a political tool in China's campaign to sinicize Tibet.
