Geographical location and historical development, economic development and population mobility.

1. Geographical location and historical development: Shigatse is located in central Tibet, the largest administrative region in Tibet, with vast land and superior geographical position. Historically, it was one of the political and cultural centers of Tibet. In contrast, Lhasa is located in southern Tibet. Although it is the capital of Tibet, its geographical location is remote, and there is no political and cultural center like Shigatse in history.

2. Economic development and population mobility: In recent years, with the development of the western region and the acceleration of economic development in China and Tibet, the economic growth and population growth in Shigatse area have been rapid. In contrast, the population growth rate in Lhasa is slow. Although Lhasa is actively developing its economy, its population mobility and economic development are limited due to geographical location and historical factors.
