Strange Asian Traditions ---There are a lot of the weird traditions in Asia .One of the mores that is believed to be extremely weird is the so called Tibetan Sky Burial. In Tibet ,China, people do not bury the bodies underground or even burn them ; they simply leave them on the mountains to be eaten by the birds of prey as one of religious duties .This kind of burial is not the only strange tradition . Marriage in Tibet is also weird whereby women get for themselves more than five husbands at once .Multiple Husbands , also known as polyandry, is widely common in Asia ,but what makes it uncanny is that the Tibetan husbands must be brothers .While Tibetan women allow themselves to get a lot of husbands , women in kyrgyzstan have no choice to select even one husband . The groom in kyrgyzstan do not ask his brides hand from her parents ; he simply sees her from far ,likes her , follows her to know her address, and kidnaps her on the next day .After the kidnaping process she becomes his wife regardless to her will . Asia is full for traditions that is seen as odd by non-asians ,but the Asians practise their traditions proudly . Ali Corleone
