Tibetan carpets are displayed at a factory in Xining, northwest China's Qinghai Province, July 8, 2022.

Tibetan carpet, with a history of over a thousand years, was once a necessity for people living in the alpine region of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to resist severe cold weather.

In recent years, Tibetan carpet enterprises in Xining, through modern means of technology, are driving the ancient handicraft into an era of intelligent manufacturing.
