Tibetan monks carry large horns into a temple as they prepare for a special prayer session to mark the Tibetan New Year at the Namo Monastery, founded over 1,100 years ago, located on the outskirts of Kangding in Sichuan province February 24, 2009. The monastery's new year prayer service will be held inside the temple this year and not outside as normal. Kangding, a town historically part of Tibet and heavily populated by them, are preparing to mark their new year on February 25 amid heavy security, but this year's anniversary is extra sensitive as 2009 also marks the 50th anniversary of the flight into exile of Tibet's spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, after an abortive uprising against Chinese rule.
