The historical origin of Zhuo dance.
The historical origin of Zhuo dance can be traced back to primitive society. There is also a legend about "Zhuo Dance". It is said that in the middle of the eighth century, with the help of some Buddhist masters, Chisong Dêzain, the 37th Tibetan king, built the first temple in Tibet on the north bank of the Yarlung Zangbo River, and the walls that craftsmen worked so hard to build during the day were destroyed by demons at night. In order to confuse ghosts and gods, Buddhist masters invited seven Zhuoba brothers in Tai Po, that is, actors who danced Zhuowu, to dance Zhuowu to kill demons. From then on, Zhuowu prevailed here.
