The file photo taken in June 2005 shows herdsmen dance on the Qiangtang Grassland in Tibet Autonomous Region, southwest China. Qiangtang Grassland is surrounded by Kunlun Mountains, Dangla (Tanggula) Mountains and Kangdese Mountains. Its length from the east to the west is about 1,200 kilometers and the length from the north to the south is about 700 kilometers. The average latitude is above 4,500 meters. The Qinghai-Tibet railway which will begin its trial operation on June 1, runs across the Qiangtang Grassland. (Xinhua Photo)
