Since the reform and opening-up policies, the economic level, education level, and normal life of minorities in Qinghai province has daily been changing. All ethnic peoples' standard of living has improved because of wise and correct instruction of the Communist party. This is especially true in the place of origin of the Salar people, Xunhua. The change is like the night that the spring winds came and the flowers began to blossom. People are very surprised by the change. In school there is a main lecture topic called "How to describe your home town or country" done by giving an introduction for a trip. Our school chose a theme named "Come to Xunhua - Enjoy Xunhua". In this beautiful spring season we organized the students and travelled to the Pearl of the Plateau, the origin place of the Salar people, Xunhua, to investigate the changing life-conditions of the local Salar people. First, we organized the students to participate in a trip to Xunhua's MengDa Heavenly Lake, to experience the beauty of nature and enjoy the development of the local tourism. Second, we combined with some hand-in-hand local partner schools and became hand-in-hand friends. We all studied together and enjoyed living together and learning about the development of the local education, and getting to know how the local government attaches importance to minority education and care for the Salar peoples' normal life. Finally, we invited some local citizens to give us an introduction to the history of the development of the Salar people, explaining the differences between the previous and afterward times in regard to the open policies. We learned much about the traditional culture.
