Villagers' company reaps rewards

With the Qixi Festival coming up, a tourism company set up by villagers is preparing for its busiest time of the year as couples descend on Lovers' Valley in the shadows of Huangshan Mountain, Anhui province.

The festival, also known as Chinese Valentine's Day, falls on Aug 7, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.

Zhu Weibing, deputy general manager of Feicuigu Tourism, which was established more than 30 years ago by residents of Shangzhang village, Tangkou township, is expecting strong tourist numbers.
