CCTV News: In Guangdong, not only Guangzhou Haizhu Wetland Park has become a popular check-in place for citizens. As the Guangdong railway network becomes denser and denser, taking the high-speed rail to enjoy flowers is gradually becoming a new hot spot in the tourism market.

Departing from Guangzhou, it takes only about 2 hours to take the high-speed rail to reach many surrounding cities such as Meizhou, Shantou, and Heyuan. These cities also have rich flower resources and beautiful natural landscapes. In Yinna Mountain in Meizhou City, thousands of cherry blossoms bloom in competition, and pink and white petals intertwined each other, as gorgeous as dreamy clouds, drawing together a vivid picture of spring full of the garden. Similarly, in the Dancheon Ecological Park in Shantou City, various flowers compete for beauty, forming a colorful sea of flowers, as if they were carefully painted by nature.

In a flower field in Heyuan City, hundreds of acres of rapeseed flowers also quietly bloomed, attracting many tourists to come and see the infinite charm of spring. At the same time, convenient transportation has also given birth to "high-speed rail flower viewing tour", which not only drives the development of local catering, accommodation and other industries, but also injects new vitality into the local spring economy.

Check in to the G348 Three Gorges Highway New business formats bring new opportunities
Spring reaches the Gorges River, and the whole view is full of green. In Yichang, Hubei, with the comprehensive renovation and upgrading of the G348 Three Gorges Highway, visiting the Three Gorges and seeing the dams have become popular popular tourist routes.


In early spring, hazy fog filled the mouth of Xiling Gorge, and the continuous green mountains appeared and loomed in the fog, showing the beautiful scenery. On the G348 Three Gorges Highway by the river, there are many self-driving vehicles, viewing platforms, geological science corridors, and star-watching spots. You can stop and stop all the way and enjoy the river scenery from different angles.

This G348 Three Gorges Highway was the only land passage entering the Three Gorges Dam area. As the Three Gorges Special Highway and the Three Gorges Winding Dam Expressway were successively completed and opened to traffic, the traffic function of this old national highway has gradually weakened and the road facilities have gradually aged. In order to regain this old national highway that contains profound historical heritage and beautiful landscapes, in 2020, the G348 Three Gorges Highway started renovation. The staff said that this section of ordinary national highway has been upgraded and transformed through road renewal, ecological restoration and geological study, and has changed from a single highway resting ground for ordinary national highways to a pleasant check-in spot.

After three years of construction, the G348 Three Gorges Highway has gradually become a "window road" for local cultural and tourism resources. While bringing tourists a new experience of "Three Gorges Upland" it also allows residents along the route to enjoy "tourism meal". Each unique homestay and shops with different styles are "connected into pearls" along the national highway, and the emerging new business formats have brought new opportunities. According to the owner of the B&B along the highway, in the past, more customers passed by, and now they can stay for several days, and can eat, stay, or even drink a cup of coffee. The turnover of the B&B is more than twice that of the previous one. Because the business is getting better and better, he invited more villagers to work here.
