At Three-River Source, the sources of the Yangtze River, Yellow River and Lancang River converge, which has earned it the name "Water Tower of China". This area is made up of the world's highest-altitude and largest plateau wetland ecosystem. Rare snow leopards and Tibetan antelopes can be seen in the region, alongside up to 84 kinds of wild animals that are under state priority conservation including kiang, wild yak, white-lipped deer, and black-necked crane. The area is vitally important to China's biodiversity as well as the country's speciation and evolution. More recently, the area has seen the application of digital technologies in support of local environmental protection, highlighting the value of coexistence between technologies and Nature.
