Tibetan Buddhism has significantly influenced life in the whole area of cultural Tibet, which includes the center of Tibetan civilization, the areas of todays northern, central and southeastern provinces of China and present-day Mongolia. Tibetan art is inextricably linked to religion. In addition to the dominant Buddhism, other religions also play a major role in this cultural area - especially the bön, which is based on natural cults and shamanism and whose origins can be traced to before the advent of Buddhism.
