 Basum Lake in Gongbujiangda County is a famous scenic spot in Nyingchi.
 
Nyingchi in Tibet, China, features low elevation, humid climate, and rich natural resources. Yet, in ancient times, it was once an exile destination due to its dense mountains, forests, and rivers, along with the lack of large barley fields, making it seem uninhabitable to Tibetans. However, thousands of years later, more and more people from Guangdong have moved to Nyingchi for business, employment, tourism, and settling down. They view it as the "Snowy Jiangnan"(south of the Yangtze River region). From 1995 to 2023, the GDP of Nyingchi increased nearly a hundredfold. Statistics showed that in 2023, Nyingchi had the highest per capita GDP among all cities in Tibet.

A while ago, Yao Yongwen, a Guangdong teacher supporting Tibet, intervened before China's national college entrance examination ("gaokao") to help two senior high school brothers. Their grandfather was paralyzed, and with their parents busy herding livestock, the family needed the brothers to drop out of school to care for him. Understanding the difficulty of the situation, especially their hardship to be admitted into a key senior high school in Tibet, Yao Yongwen and a few other teachers decided to cover a few months wages to hire a caregiver, allowing the students to focus on their exams. The effort paid off as both brothers scored above the key line for applying to universities. For thousands of years, the Chinese nation has thrived on this land through faith, hope, and the power of mutual support and vigilance.

At Nyingchi First Senior High School, the reporter encountered several individuals: a young Monpa student who, after finishing his exams, was unwilling to go home and stayed in the school library to study by himself. A Tibetan woman who, just after coming out of surgery while still under anesthesia, struggled to clasp her hands in thanks to the doctor. A young Lhoba boy who, in addition to herding, had learned to cultivate Fritillaria cirrhosa D. Don, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb. A Tibetan driver named Dorjee went to pick cherries at the Mainling farm for the first time.

Xiao Liang, from Guangzhou, joined China's Far West Program and came to Nyingchi after graduating from university. He said that the place was different from what he had imagined and, in some aspects, even more appealing than Guangzhou. As a result, he stayed in Nyingchi. Like Liang, more and more people are coming to Nyingchi for business, employment, tourism, and settling down. Here, they see landscapes that are different from, and sometimes even better than, those of their hometowns.

 The Guangdong aid team invested in renovating the roads, building facades, and landscaping in Jieba Village, which now features picturesque scenery.
Since humans discovered the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, it has somehow become a sacred route to dreams in people's hearts. For centuries, countless souls have spined prayer wheels and touched mani stones, searching for peace, serenity, and eternity.
