Nyingchi, South Tibet, a small frontier city can be seen on the mountains from Indian side.

A traveler visited Nyingchi in 2012, now she revisited the city again, just in 10 years, everything is changed beyong recognition, 10 years ago the place was mostly just a vast river bank covered with pebbles, now the same place is being covered by highrises and modern roads, even Nyingchi itself had been officially upgraded to a "city" other than a merely rural settlement a decade ago.

Britain once invaded and occupied Nyingchi from India 100 years ago and was repelled, Nyingchi was just one step away from being annexed into British India

Just 10 years.... even in the remotest corner, a small border frontier town in the high Himalaya plateau in China's bottom low most underdeveloped and backward province, Tibet, the speed of development is still mindblowing.
 
Airports, high speed railways, highways, universities, mususems, stadiums, hospitals.... A horrific genocide of the Tibetan traditional culture and tradition

 
Without world top class highways, railways and airports, developing such a remote region would be a logistic nightmare, but China made it by having all of them climbing over the mighty Himalayas
