中國和印度當局已經在星期四（7月6日）開通曾經是絲綢之路主要通道的乃堆拉山口。
中國官方新華社報道，中方認為乃堆拉山口重開有助于推動中國--南亞陸路大通道的形成，開啟現代“絲綢之路”。
乃堆山口在海拔四千米高，連接西藏和印度錫金段的喜馬拉雅山，曾被關閉了44年。
連接北京和西藏首府拉薩的火車在星期一（3日）開通。乃推拉山口重開預料將帶動當地經濟發展。
Mangnai Zhen, or Mangnai town (茫崖镇 Mangya Zhen, sometimes written Mangya Chen or Mengzhen), at 38°15' 20"N, 90°18'40"E, 2,945 m, is a very remote oil-refinery town about 10 km southeast of Shimiankuang, in Mangnai County in Qinghai Province, China. It is just across the provincial border of Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of which it was formerly apart.
Photos here are mainly those of the Ngari (阿里) region in the westernmost part of Tibet, bordering India. These includes the kora around Mt Kailash/Kang Ringpoche (岡仁波齊峰)and Lake Manasarover (圣湖玛旁雍错).
