Bridges over the Lhasa River are pictured in Lhasa, southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, July 30, 2025. During the 1950s, the first bridge over the Lhasa River was built, ending the reliance on sheepskin rafts for river crossings. Nowadays, multiple bridges span the river across downtown Lhasa, reflecting the region's rapid progress in transportation and urban development. (Xinhua/Jiang Fan)
