Located in the northeast of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Qinghai is an important corridor linking up the country’s inland areas and Tibet. It is considered the “Home of the Mountains.” It has the richest resources of glacier in China. It is also the origin of the country’s most important rivers — the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. The province boasts rich water, oil, natural gas and non-ferrous metal resources. Qinghai is a province where multiple ethnic groups dwell and has the glorious culture of Tibetan-sect Buddhism.

It is where the Yellow River culture, Islamic culture, and Western Xia culture have integrated with each other. It claims to be a bright pearl on the Yellow River.
