Dance The dance of Barro nationality is rooted in life practice, and its movements mostly imitate the shapes and movements of animals, birds and animals, as well as the joyful scenes of people catching and domesticating animals. For example, Gail's "Taming Cows" dance shows the action of Loba people chasing, catching and taming bulls. There are also large-scale collective songs and dances for men and women, which are lively, vigorous and powerful and have a warm atmosphere.

The traditional houses of the Barrow nationality are blockhouses made of stone and wood, which are durable and have good defensive functions. On the door or wall of the house, they painted many patterns to ward off evil spirits and seek happiness. The animal head hanging on the wall is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a display of the hunter's hunting ability.

rugged mountain roads, high mountains and deep valleys, blocked rivers and fast-flowing water make it extremely difficult to communicate with the outside world. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Loba people had no means of transportation such as cars, horses, boats and boats, only paths and bridges for people to walk, as well as wooden ladders and rattan ropes for people to climb.

In order to adapt to this environment, Loba people have created various unique bridge-building techniques. Ordinary bridges include single slab bridge, bamboo-wood bridge, cable-stayed bridge and rattan bridge. Among them, the rattan bridge is the most distinctive, which can best reflect the bridge-building skills of the Barrow people. Rattan bridge is a tubular suspension bridge woven from rattan. It is mainly built on the traffic arteries with deep water, wide river and steep terrain. Generally speaking, bridges are tens of meters above the water, 5-6 meters short and 2-3 meters long. Seen from a distance, the rattan bridge flies across the river like a dragon, forming a unique scenery of Luoyu. Dexing Tengqiao in Medog County has a history of more than 3 years. It was built in the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon. This bridge is more than 5 meters away from the river and more than 15 meters long. It is like a dragon, flying around the mountain and crossing the river. Its majesty reflects the superb bridge-building art of the Luoba nationality.
