The Tibetan Bathing Festival, or Bathing Week, is an annual tradition held from the 6th to 12th day of the seventh month in the Tibetan calendar (early July). The 700-800-year-old festival takes place across Tibet, particularly along the banks of the Lhasa River, where people of all ages bathe together in natural waters. The first day involves thorough bathing, while subsequent days allow for simple rinsing of hair and feet before a final full bath on the seventh day. The tradition serves as a social occasion where young people can meet potential romantic partners.
