People gathered for the Beating the Ghost ceremony, or Da Gui in Chinese, an important Tibetan Buddhist ritual, at Yonghegong Lama Temple in Beijing on Feb 21.
The ceremony is held annually on the eve of the Tibetan New Year, which begins Feb 22 this year. Tibetan Buddhists believe the celebration expels evil spirits, repels trouble and brings peace to the world.
