Nanping Village, once a declined village as residents left to seek works elsewhere, has regained vitality thanks to the renovation efforts by local authorities.
Dilapidated old houses were transformed into stylish homestays and cafes, while areas around the stream in the village was developed into a summer retreat and camping site.
After the renovation, the annual turnover generated here reaches nearly 2 million yuan (about 278,610 U.S. dollars). In addition to rental income for villagers, this cultural and tourism development project has also created over 50 job opportunities. (Xinhua/Zhou Mi)
