Barren stone quarry turned into rural tourism hub
In a mountain village in Southwest China's Chongqing, a former barren stone quarry has been reborn as a vibrant rural tourism destination through ecological reform and the creation of innovative tourism experiences, setting a benchmark for sustainable development.
Located in Zhonghua village, Jingguan township of Beibei district, the once bustling site of industrial activity is now a vibrant green landscape. Over 20 hectares of peach and plum trees flourish here, accompanied by the elegantly constructed Jibai Villa, a nationally recognized A-level tourist homestay inn.
The transformation of this site is nothing short of remarkable. Visitors are greeted with a diverse range of activities, from rural tourism experiences like flower appreciation and fruit picking to a mining study club and the region's first innkeeper training school.
