This is modern Xizang

This video is about what I saw in the second biggest city in Xizang autonomous region, Shigatse. At first I was surprised by what I saw, a city with culture and history, yes, but also a modern city with international brands and restaurants. My surprise was what made me want to make this video. Why was I surprised and why shouldn't Xizang be modern and international?
