Wengyuan Buckwheat Flower Sea Address

Longtian Village, Zhoupi Town, Wengyuan County.

About 300 acres of buckwheat planted here has entered the peak flowering period. The sea of ??flowers is dreamy and romantic, forming a beautiful and vibrant rural picture.

The snow-white buckwheat flowers stretch as far as the eye can see. Walking in the fields makes you feel like you are in a fairyland on earth. The thin wheat stalks sway proudly in the wind, and the fragrance of the flowers is refreshing. Tourists take pictures, play and enjoy the beauty of nature while walking among the flowers (pictured, photo provided by Wengyuan County Media Center).

“At this time of year, the sea of ??buckwheat flowers attracts many tourists from the Pearl River Delta and neighboring counties (cities, districts) to come and watch it, becoming a beautiful landscape of rural tourism in our town.” Relevant person in charge of Zhoupi Town People said that Longtian Village has a long history of growing buckwheat. Under the guidance of the local government and village committee, buckwheat has become the village’s specialty industry.

Buckwheat is sweet in nature and cool in taste. It has the effects of strengthening the spleen, eliminating accumulation, lowering qi and widening the intestines. Local villagers grind buckwheat into powder, add an appropriate amount of water to make a slurry, and add chopped green onions, leeks, eggs, etc. to make flower wheat glutinous rice cakes, which taste crispy, delicious and have a unique flavor.

The buckwheat specialty industry is an epitome of the revitalization of cultural tourism in Zhoupi Town. It is reported that Longtian Village is the hometown of Chen Lin, a famous anti-Japanese general in the Ming Dynasty. There are cultural landscapes such as Chen Lin’s birthplace and the ruins of Longtian City in the territory. It is rich in Shatian pomelo, buckwheat, honey and other famous specialties. In recent years, the local government has fully explored the historical and cultural value of the village, combined with the construction of ecological, livable and beautiful countryside, and strived to turn Longtian Village into a tourist village.

Longtian Village is built around Chenlin culture. The architectural style is antique and full of classical connotations. At present, the construction has been fully completed, and the appearance of the village has been completely renewed. There are Chen Lin Cultural Plaza, Publicity Corridor, Water System Landscape Area and Pavilion near Chen Lin’s birthplace, making it convenient for tourists to visit and relax.
