Wearing festive dress, farmers from Lunbugang Township in Maizhokunggar County, Tibet Autonomous Region in Southwest China, walk in their fields Tuesday to mark the annual Tibetan Harvest Festival. The direct translation of the Tibetan word for the festival means "walking around the crop fields" and local farmers across rural Tibet observe the tradition before harvest. Many places also hold horse races, dancing and other activities.
