Sixty years ago, the mysterious Qinghai-Xizang Plateau was impoverished and isolated, with few roads and limited social infrastructure. Today, Xizang has made incredible strides. Its economy has surged nearly 1,000-fold. Vast transport networks now connect the region, while living standards have soared with significant advancements in social services. Life expectancy has doubled, and absolute poverty has been eradicated. Today's Xizang is a vibrant embodiment of China's inclusive development policy—a confident, open, and increasingly prosperous region marching boldly into the future.
