Come to Dalishu Village to experience the "two heavens of ice and fire" in winter tourism. Climb to the top of Fenghuang Mountain and Dagu Mountain... In Fengcheng City and Donggang City in Dandong, Liaoning, the consumption of winter culture and tourism is gradually heating up.

  Over the past 40 years, Dalishu Village, located in the southwestern suburbs of Fengcheng City, has gradually transformed from a small impoverished mountain village into a beautiful village with beautiful mountains and rivers and rich people.

This is the first batch of agricultural tourism demonstration sites in the country and a key village for rural tourism in the country.

  "These icicles and ice hangings sandwiched between the trees are so beautiful, especially with all kinds of "Fu" Chinese New Year scenes, it is very festive and joyful!" In early February, Wang Xuejie, a tourist from Shenyang, brought his wife and daughter to the The Dalishu Ecological Agriculture Sightseeing and Tourist Area in Fengcheng City expressed such emotion.

Three members of Wang Xuejie's family came here because of the Ice and Snow Folk Festival being held in Dalishu Village.

  According to Zhao Zhequn, director of Dalishu Tourist Area Office, the theme of this year's Ice and Snow Folklore Festival is: relying on the creation of ice and snow landscapes, adding new colors to winter tourism in Dalishu; taking traditional folk activities as a carrier, inheriting and carrying forward the excellent Chinese traditions culture.

  "Ice and Snow Lunar New Year" and "Northeast People's House" huts are the online celebrity check-in spots this winter.

"Ice and Snow Lunar New Year" cleverly uses the ice and snow gifted by nature, makes full use of on-site landscape facilities and local materials, and provides tourists with scenes such as icicles, ice hangings, and the word "Fu"; The site is selected in the city to build northeast characteristic dwellings, restoring the most authentic winter life scene in northeast China.

  "In the hut of 'Northeast People', traditional living appliances such as braziers, stoves, and cradles are displayed. Wearing a cotton-padded jacket with Northeast characteristics, and sitting on the kang in the hut, it brings back good memories of my childhood in my grandma’s house in the countryside. .” Wang Xuejie said.

  Feel the cold ice and snow, but also feel the warmth of the greenhouse exhibition hall. One cold and one hot form the characteristics of "ice and fire" in winter tourism in Dalishu Village.

  Mangoes, dragon fruits, pineapples, bananas... these fruits that can only be seen in the south can also be seen in the Dalishu Village Colorful Pastoral Modern Agriculture Exhibition Hall.

The colorful pastoral modern agriculture exhibition hall uses greenhouses to plant a lot of tropical fruits and plants, which attracts the attention of tourists. Many people even bought some tropical boutique fruits to take home.

  Nowadays, rural tourism is booming, and while it is becoming more and more popular, it also highlights problems such as serious homogeneity.

In Zhao Zhequn's view, if we want to do a good job in winter rural tourism, we must have characteristics, change the single and extensive tourism model in the past, provide differentiated services, highlight regional characteristics, and improve consumption quality.

"Winter rural tourism must highlight the construction of eco-tourism brands, further promote the integration of culture and tourism, create an ecological health care industry, and promote consumption upgrades." Zhao Zhequn said.

  In addition to characteristic rural tourism, many Dandong citizens and foreign tourists like to climb high and look far in the first month.

  Dagushan is located in Dagushan Town, a historical and cultural ancient town in the southwest of Donggang City, bordering the North Yellow Sea in the south, Dayang River in the east, and facing Dalu Island across the sea.

  Jing Ning, a tourist from Dalian, came here for the "thousand-year-old ginkgo tree".

"The ancient trees here are towering, and there are more than 300 strange-shaped ancient trees over 300 years old. I especially like the thousand-year-old ginkgo trees here. It is really refreshing to come to this natural oxygen bar in Dagu Mountain," she said.

  According to Xiao Chunan, executive director of the Dagushan Scenic Area Management Committee in Donggang City, starting from the winter of 2022, cultural tourism consumption in Dagushan will gradually pick up.

"We received 3,000 tourists on the first day of the first lunar month, and 7,000 tourists on the fifth day of the first month. Our ticket price is 35 yuan. From the first day to the tenth day of the first month, the ticket revenue is considerable." Xiao Chunan said.

  From the eve of the Spring Festival to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the B&Bs and hotels inside and outside Fenghuang Mountain in Fengcheng City are more popular.

According to the statistics of the scenic spot, from the first day to the fifth day of the new year, more than 30,000 tourists visited Phoenix Mountain.

  According to Zhao Yue, Director of the Marketing Department of Liaoning Phoenix Mountain Tourism Group, Phoenix Mountain belongs to the Changbai Mountains. It has a long history, beautiful scenery, and is famous for its precipitousness.

In order to create a joyful, peaceful and festive atmosphere for tourists, the scenic spot has decorated the Phoenix Mountain Square area, trails and roads along the way, Baxian Lake area, and Dashanmen area with traditional lanterns, Internet celebrity check-in points and dolls. The focus is on interaction points, which improves the quality of consumption and meets the diverse consumption needs of tourists such as tying red strings, watching folk customs, and watching snow scenes during the New Year Festival.
