Rural tourism flourishes in Guiyang

2022-08-07

Many tourists came to enjoy leisure sightseeing and coolness at Wanghu Ecological Farm in Zhangshi Town, Guiyang County, in spite of the outdoor temperature up to 35 ℃.

Stepping into Wanghu Ecological Farm, you can feel the cool breeze blowing gently. It is quite exciting to slide down the mountain in a 360-degree rotation with three long rainbow slides extending from the mountaintop to the bottom. With a drop of 300 meters, the full-view transparent design is adopted in the glass channel rafting with a length of 1,600 meters. Visitors can appreciate the wonderful landscape and feel the refreshing coolness by riding a surfboat.

The most romantic moment of the day comes with the night. Under the stars, colorful tents are scattered on the lawn, with small groups of tourists sitting in front of the tents, eating barbecue, playing musical instruments and chatting.

The homestay inn in the farm is composed of “bubble balls”, providing tourists with a 360-degree transparent panorama from inside to outside.

Tourism products like wellness, study and leisure tours are launched by Wanghu Ecological Farm this summer, with a daily reception of more than 500 tourists.

In the hot summer, leisure farms in Guiyang are teeming with tourists, bringing the villagers more income. 210 mu (14 hectares) of lotus in the leisure farm of Gaoshan Village, Heye Town, attracts a large number of tourists. He Daiyou, a migrant worker, returned to the village in 2017 and transferred 500 mu (about 33.33 hectares) of land to plant lotus roots and breed cold water fish, with an annual output value of more than 1.2 million yuan. Villagers can get dividends and income from land shares and working in the farm.

As a national demonstration county of leisure agriculture and rural tourism, Guiyang now has more than 200 leisure farms. By the promotion of rural tourism, the county received nearly 2 million tourists in the first 7 months of this year, with tourism revenue reaching nearly 2 billion yuan.
