Ten months after the earthquake, more than 32,500 destroyed or damaged houses have been restored and handed over to affected residents, according to the authorities of Xigaze City.

In less than three days after the earthquake, Xizang rolled out a post-disaster reconstruction plan and kicked off the preliminary work, which included field survey, housing design and debris clearance.

The restoration work covered 486 villages in seven counties, resulting in the reconstruction of more than 22,000 houses and the reinforcement of an additional 10,500 homes. The first batch of quake-affected residents have moved into new homes in August.
