China Will Reopen Tibet to Tourists

This article announced the reopening of Tibet to tourist. It recently had been closed to tourist for nearly 2 months surrounding the 5oth anniversary of the Tibetan rebellion. Also included in the article was mention of a blocked you tube video of police brutality in an event last year. Now that the possible threat is viewed as over for now they welcome tourist back.
With the tensions that exist between China and Tibet this seems like an interesting relationship that has been developed through tourism.
