With the Spring Festival approaching, the county-level city of Xinyi in Maoming, South Guangdong province has been paying greater attention to rural revitalization efforts in Shuanghe village, which is expected to draw many visitors over the seven-day holiday for its beautiful landscapes.

Shuanghe village is known for Sanhua plums. It is known as the Sanhua plum village for the large number of plum trees planted in its mountain areas. Big with red or green skin, Sanhua plums are covered in a white frost when they turn ripe and are renowned for their health benefits.

In addition to Sanhua plums, Shuanghe village has become an increasingly popular tourist site due to its beautiful Sanhua trees, staggered houses, a splendid waterscape-covered bridge, and its rural public welfare library.

"I can't imagine that a small village can become so popular. Since the village has become a scenic spot, whether it is day or night, the beautiful scenery fills people with pride," said a villager who runs a small store near the waterscape-covered bridge. Due to the town's rural revitalization efforts, his business has been booming recently. In addition, many villagers will sell agricultural and sideline products in front of their homes to sell, which have been popular among visitors.
