Jiangsu Road (Chinese: 江苏路), is an east–west road in Lhasa, Tibet Autonomous Region, China.

History[edit]

The road was originally named "Jinzhu Road" because the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Tibet Military Compound was located on the road (the PLA is called "Jinzhu Mami" in Tibetan).[1] On August 27, 1997, the road was renovated with the assistance of Jiangsu Province. After the completion of the road was renamed "Jiangsu Road", and set up a Monument of Jiangsu Road to commemorate the contribution of Jiangsu Province's reconstruction assistance.[2][3]
