Kesong Village in Changzhu Town, Naidong County, Shannan Prefecture of southwest China's Tibet Autonomous Region, was the first to implement democratic reform in 1959 and has witnessed vast changes in the past decades.

Kesong Village was previously exclusively called home by serf owner, Suokang Wangqing Geli, before the democratic reform. But now it has become home to many new residents, with wide streets and brand-new residential buildings.
