•==================================• 6park.comNotes : 6park.com* The Plateau refers to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. 6park.com* The lay alludes to the famous love song “In That Far-away Land” (在那遥远的地方) composed by the renowned folksong musician Wang Luobin in 1939 at the Jinyintan Prairie (金银滩草原) near Qinghai Lake while shooting a film. There, he fell in love with a local Tibetan girl called Zhuoma, who sang for him a local Kazakh folk song. "In That Far-away Land" was based on that Kazakh folk tune, as well as some Tibetan and Uigyur folk tunes, and was originally named "The Prairie Love Song" (草原情歌).
