Barkhor Street, a well-known tourist attraction in Tibet, attracts visitors from all over the world, playing an important role in Lhasa's tourism development. Located in the old area of Lhasa City, Barkhor Street is a very ancient street surrounding the Jokhang Temple. It has now expanded into Lhasa's commercial center. As the symbol of Lhasa, it's a must-see for travellers seeking to know the city's history, architecture, industry, culture, economy and religion.

A press conference is held to notify the Tianjin explosion event in Tianjin, north China, Aug. 15, 2015. Gao Huaiyou, vice head of the Tianjin bureau of work safety, said that chemicals stored in the warehouse possibly include sodium cyanide, but further confirmation is needed. The containers were not open, and some were not even registered. Some local media reported earlier that Rui Hai Logistics, owner of the warehouse, had as much as 700 tonnes of sodium cyanide, but Gao said it was not yet verified. Measures have been taken to prevent secondary disasters, such as inviting sodium cyanide producers to help at the site, using hydrogen peroxide to reduce the amount of sodium cyanide, sending a taskforce to locate and measure the contaminated area and prevent its spread in sewage. Some other dangerous chemicals likely to be stored include potassium nitrate and ammonium nitrate. (Xinhua/Zhang Chenlin)

The Guge Kingdom ruins lie in the mountains in the suburbs of Zanda County, Ngari Prefecture, Tibet Autonomous Region. Guge was an ancient kingdom reigning in western Tibet from the 10th century to 17th century. The kingdom abruptly disappeared in the 17th century, for reasons that remain unknown. The ruins of the Guge Kingdom were discovered in the 1980s, along with its marvelous temples, murals and statues. The ruins were repaired from 2011 to 2014.
