China's Southwest Tibet autonomous region is planning to jointly launch six self-driving and trekking lines with neighboring Qinghai province, the region's tourism development department said, Tibet Business Daily reported.

Both Tibet and Qinghai share similar geographical and cultural resources with well-connected transportation networks, as well as a strong motivation for further cooperation in the tourism market.

An official team from Yushu Tibetan autonomous prefecture of Qinghai province recently made a trip to discuss cooperative projects.

Environmental protection trekking activities, off-road rally across Yushu, Tibet's Nagchu city and Ngari prefecture, and trekking along the ten Tibetan sacred mountains are discussed during the survey trip.
