Brief introduction Liangxinbao Town of Junshan District
Features:
Boasting fertile land, Liangxinbao Town has been keeping a tradition of planting canola flowers. Its annual canola flower festival helps the "spring outing" activities held in Junshan District more charming. The footpaths between fields are covered with layers of sand gravel to help visitors walk into the field. And a 20—odd-meter-high sightseeing platform was built to offer the best views. Such supporting facilities as windmills, scarecrows and photography stations have been installed too. Each year when canola flowers are in full bloom, a series of activities will be launched in the town to greet visitors from far and near, including Peasant Sports Meeting, Canola Flower Photography Contest and Junshan Agricultural and Sideline Products Fairs.
