YUTIAN, Nov. 24 (Xinhua) --Daliyabuyi Village was once located in the heart of the Taklimakan Desert. In 2019, the entire village completed its relocation and moved to a resettlement site closer to the county seat. As a result, the village ended its previous history of inconvenience in transportation, network, electricity, drinking water, medical treatment and schooling.

At present, the village has established agricultural and animal husbandry cooperatives and developed special tourism such as desert exploration, and the villagers' income has increased year by year.
