This photo taken on March 2, 2023 shows a city view in Lhasa, southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region. Official figures show that Tibet received over 157.6 million tourists from home and abroad, and achieved a tourism income of 212.6 billion yuan (29.8 billion U.S. dollars) from 2016 to 2020, 2.3 times and 2.4 times that of the previous five years, respectively, which helped lift 75,000 registered impoverished residents out of poverty.

The region received more than 11.73 million tourist arrivals in the first five months of this year, a rise of nearly 45 percent year on year, showing evident market vitality and strong recovery, the regional tourism development department said. (Xinhua/Jiang Fan)
