In p>22, the former Nansha Town Government entrusted Ningbo Yuanjian Tourism Research Office to complete the compilation of the Master Plan for Tourism Development of Xiangshan Scenic Area and the design of Meihuatang Scenic Spot. The plan defines Xiangshan as a city country park, which is divided into four functional areas: folk music fragrance-seeking area, recreation fragrance-generating area, cultural fragrance-picking area and plant fragrance-fragrance area. "Meihuatang" is one of the important scenic spots in the cultural fragrance-picking area. Because of its literary affinity with Xu Xiake and Su Dongpo, "Meihuatang" has become a unique cultural landscape in our city, with high historical significance and cultural value. The plan defines the spatial pattern of Meihuatang as three points: Meihuatang Forest of Steles, Lunv Lake and Hulutang Leisure Point.
