Tibet, famous for its snow-capped mountains, is the second largest by land size among Chinese provinces and regions. The region’s peace and prosperity have always been a national priority. Central government has planned a total investment of nearly 1 trillion yuan in the area for the 2011-2020 period, more than five times of the previous six decades’ total (1951-2010), a testament to its important status as an autonomous region and border area in China.
