It is quite amazing and impressive that there are so many gorgeous flowers growing on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a place with an average elevation of more than 4,000 meters. These various beautiful flowers dot the snow-covered plateau, and many of them can also be used as unique herbs of Tibetan medicine.
