When the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) was established in 1965, few kinds of fruits were planted in the autonomous region. It was difficult for common people even pregnant women to have fresh fruits at that time.

However, with the help of advanced technology, nowadays TAR can plant various fruits such as watermelons and peaches supported by the government. And having fruits has become Tibetan people's daily habit.
