 According to Hu, locals once lived off farming and animal husbandry. But since the area's tourism began thriving in the 1990s, the people have become engaged in the sector as it has become the major trade.
Hu says village tourist development now mainly focuses on three aspects — the first is to create Qiang culture-based tourism, tell stories of the Qiang people by showing the architectural legacy and offering intangible cultural heritage items.
