     Leaving this town and the Sining River valley the road ascends a grassy valley with some recently started cultivation to a pass, 10,780 feet, over the Jih-yüeh Shan range, 27 miles from Tangar. This is the boundary between the Kansu and Ch'ing-hai Provinces. It is also the real boundary between China and Tibet, though the present frontier is the Tang-la Range, running east and west, the divide between the Salween and Mekong rivers.

     In the west, the outer periphery of the Inner Zone is the great divide separating Pacific Ocean and South China Sea drainage on the one hand, from drainage oriented towards Hsin-chiang in the northwest and towards the Indian Ocean in the southwest, on the other. This divide also represents a fairly pronounced stress zone between the tenuous power China has been able to maintain over Tibet to the west and the firmer control she has been able to exercise over Hsi-k'ang and Ch'ing-hai to the east.

This area was officially incorporated into the Chinese provincial system as Ch’ing-hai Province in 1928.

   • 2007, Laurie Burnham, Rivers (The Extreme Earth)‎, Chelsea House, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 45:

     The Yangtze River first formed millions of years ago, a by-product of continental drift. Although the process itself took many millennia, the Ch'ing-hai (Qinghai) Plateau, from which the Yangtze descends, rose from the Earth's crust some 40 million years ago when the Indian subcontinent and Eurasia crashed into one another, forming a single landmass.
