How curious! Why did Longhui, a poor village in Hunan, become a "punching place for network celebrities"?

Xiangjia village, at first glance, is an ordinary small village.

However, this small village is not ordinary. Through tourism to help the poor, Xiangjia village has become a butterfly, "poor mountain nest" has become a "cornucopia", and it has become a famous punching place among distant network celebrities, and girls from other villages are vying to marry. What kind of story is there in the middle?

Xiangjia Village is located in Yankou Town, Longhui County, Hunan Province, 270 kilometers away from Changsha, 70 kilometers away from Shaoyang City and 30 kilometers away from Longhui County. Huai-Shao-Heng Railway, Shanghai-Kunming-expressway and National Highway 320 pass through the territory, and the traffic is very convenient.

Xiangjia Village is located on the mountainside of Jiulong Mountain, one of the four famous mountains in Longhui. Before 20 14, Xiangjia village was a well-known poor village, isolated from the outside world and connected with the outside world only by a dirt road. The villagers are "dusty in sunny days and muddy in rainy days".

There are 252 households 1008 in 8 villagers' groups in the village, and 95 households18 in poor households. The incidence of poverty is as high as 22%. There are only 460 mu of cultivated land and 506 mu of dry land in the village, and the remaining 13000 mu is all barren hills and jungles, with only a handful of fields per capita. Not only is the land barren, but it is also dry for ten years and nine times. Without minerals and enterprises, villagers' wallets are flat.

In those years, "not getting a wife" was the biggest headache for young men in Xiangjia Village. Even if you finally find a wife, at the time of the happy event, the wedding car can't drive into the village, and the girls in other villages don't want to marry Xiangjia Village. Boys and girls in the village are scrambling to move out of their hukou.

In April, 20 14, the chairman of Huaxing Company, who went out from Xiangjia Village, returned to the village as the village director at the strong request of his hometown villagers, and led the villagers to start the road of getting rid of poverty and becoming rich. Eight branches of Huaxing Company helped eight villagers' groups in Xiangjia Village respectively. Through a series of measures such as infrastructure assistance, industrial assistance, financial assistance, intellectual assistance, employment assistance, public welfare assistance, and tourism development, Xiangjia Village achieved poverty alleviation at the end of 20 16 and became the first overall poverty alleviation village in Longhui County. While getting rid of poverty, the construction of beautiful countryside in Xiangjia Village has also started quietly.

After more than six years of hard work, Xiangjia Village has taken on a new look. Once a remote mountain village, now a beautiful butterfly has become a tourist attraction among network celebrities. The scenery is in the village, and the village blends in. Xiangjia Niutianling Scenic Area, which was built by villagers led by Huaxing Company, was officially upgraded to a national 3A-level tourist scenic spot on August 18 this year.

Xiangjia Niutianling Scenic Area, which integrates rural scenery, beautiful countryside, leisure and sightseeing experience, covers an area of about 7 square kilometers, with an altitude of more than 700 meters, with a forest coverage rate of nearly 95%, high negative ion content and exceptionally fresh air. Since the opening of 20 19 in May, it has received more than 500,000 tourists. During the "May Day" this year alone, the number of tourists reached more than 68,000.

More than 60 villagers were employed in the scenic spot, and the villagers had a steaming "tourist meal" at their doorstep. On holidays, villagers can also set up stalls and sell agricultural and sideline products. In 20 19, the per capita annual income of villagers increased from less than 2,000 yuan in 20 13 to1800 yuan. In just six years, the income has more than quintupled, and the annual income of the collective economy has reached 600,000 yuan. All the houses in the village have been transformed into "wearing clothes and hats". The external walls of every household are inlaid with tiles, and the roofs are covered with glazed tiles, which are unified and beautiful. Now girls from other villages are vying to marry in the village.

At present, Niutianling Scenic Area has built Sun Lake Cruise Center, Rainbow Slide, Children's Paradise, Parent-child Garden, Development Center, Water Park, Niutianling Observation Deck, Niutianling Cultural Square, Huayan Temple, Fishing Center, Bike Path, Alishan Bamboo Forest, Lotus Ridge, koi fish Fish Pond, Chestnut Garden, cherry orchard, Gui Huayuan and Modern Agricultural Sightseeing Park.

Screams and shouts echoed in the valley for a long time.

Niutianling Cultural Square, located at Niutianling observation deck, covers an area of about 2000 square meters. The bronze sculpture of "Pioneering Cow" is the landmark attraction of the Cultural Square. "Pioneer Cow" not only explains the origin of Niutianling's place name, but also symbolizes the inheritance of thousands of years of farming culture, showing the spirit of "pioneer cow" with selfless dedication, hard work and hard work.

Overlooking the Cultural Square from high altitude, it looks like an airplane, with the engine room in the east and wings on both sides. The tail of the plane is close to the rainbow slide. The plane flies to the Jiulong Mountain in front, and the exhaust gas forms a seven-color rainbow, which means that rural tourism is leading Xiangjia Village to take off on the road of getting rid of poverty and getting rich!
