Nestled in the southeastern Xizang Autonomous Region, Galai Village is painting the plateau pink every spring with its iconic peach blossoms. For locals like Dawa Gyaltsen—who once hosted President Xi Jinping in his home—March and April are buzzing with activity as tourists flock to witness nature’s confetti. 🎉
This year holds extra significance: 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of Xizang’s establishment as an autonomous region. In a heartfelt letter to villagers, President Xi emphasized preserving the region’s pristine environment while boosting the ‘Peach Blossom Village’ brand. His message? Sustainable growth is key to building a prosperous, stable frontier for China. 💌
Galai’s story isn’t just about flowers—it’s a microcosm of Xizang’s development. By blending ecological care with cultural charm, the village is becoming a blueprint for rural revitalization. Think of it as ‘cottagecore meets economic strategy’—a win-win for nature and livelihoods. 🌱💼
