Southwest China’s Tibet Autonomous Region has announced plans to add more roads to remote monasteries and villages.
The region will spend 200 billion RMB (about 32.67 billion U.S. dollars) on building new roads and repairing old ones in the next six years.
Tibet has more than 1,700 registered monasteries and venues for religious activities, with about 46,000 monks and nuns.
The region hopes to soon have blacktop roads leading into over 80 percent of townships, and to complete construction of the road linking Lhasa and Nyingchi.
