Tongpa (Dai ethnic word) is a kind of traditional satchel worn by ethnic groups such as the Dai, Yi, Hani, Jingpo, Wa, Lisu and Deang. It is a daily necessity as well as a kind of exquisite artistic handcraft. Dai ethnic youth deem it a token of love.
As a kind of Dai brocade, in the past, Tongpa was made from flax, cotton, and now its materials include silk, and blending of wool and cotton.
Due to its long history of more than 1,000 years, Dai ethnic Tongpa is considered the representative of ethnic satchels in Yunnan province.
