A rebirth over 60 years

00:46

Six decades ago, the poverty rate in China's Xizang Autonomous Region exceeded 90 percent, and the average life expectancy was just 35.5 years old. Today, this once-barren land now blossoms. Sights of people carrying loads and beasts bearing burden live only in the memory, replaced with the flowing lines of a comprehensive transportation network. Once, "tea cost more than life," but now the air is filled with the joyful sounds of boiling butter tea. Let us hear the stories of those who experienced this unprecedented transformation, and listen to the authentic heartbeat of the plateau.
