The glacier meltwater from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is rich in minerals and trace elements. With a refreshing and sweet taste, it earns the reputation of "fine water from the snowy region". In recent years, with the upgrading of the Qinghai-Xizang Railway and the opening of the Lhasa-Xigaze, Lhasa-Nyingchi, and Lanzhou-Xinjiang lines, over 1.5 million tons of this fine water have been transported nationwide via railways, equivalent to approximately 22.81 million cartons.
