People witnessed amazing progress of the transportation in Tibet over the past five decades. A total of 75,000 kilometers road have made the transportation in Tibet much easier than 50 years ago. The Qinghai-Tibet railway, running from northwest China's Qinghai Province to Lhasa, was opened in 2006. Since then, the number of visitors to Tibet has increased enormously. Above the railways and highways, the air transportation in Tibet also embraced a huge leap-forward. In the half-century development, over 24.71 million passenger trips were made and the total volume of goods reached nearly 329,900 tons. (Photo: Xinhua/Purbu Zhaxi)

Members of a Guqin association re-enact a traditional coming-of-age ceremony in Liaocheng city, East China’s Shandong province, Aug 10, 2015. The Guqin is a plucked seven-string Chinese musical instrument of the zither family. Historically, the Confucian coming-of- age ceremony has been the "Guan Li" for men and the "Ji Li" for women. The ceremony usually takes place when a young person reaches around 20 years. The ceremonies are now rarely practiced in China, but they are seeing a resurgence.

The Detian Falls is located in Daxin County of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, straddling the Sino-Vietnamese border. It is the fourth largest waterfall in world after Iguazu Falls, Victoria Falls, and Niagara Falls along a national border. The picturesque backdrop adds to the falls' magnificence, especially the nearby Tongling Gorge, which was only recently rediscovered and is the home of several endemic species — species that can found nowhere else in the world. The roaring waterfall is separated into three-tiered falls by rocks and trees, dropping more than 70 meters. It has a maximum width of 200 meters.The waterfall is the largest naturally formed falls in Southeast Asia and has been identified as a top national tourist destination.
