Farmhouses with green tiles and white walls are scattered in an orderly manner, and the murals in the village complement the sea of ​​five-color flowers. Late autumn is getting colder, but Yulianggou, located in Liangjia Village, Xijiao Township, Jiguan District, Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province, still has an endless stream of tourists coming to check in.

Yulianggou is the residential area of ​​the fifth group of Liangjia Village. Xiaotun is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and a small stream runs through the village. Although they guard the highway and enjoy the beautiful scenery, a few years ago in Yulianggou, the average land per capita was less than 1 mu, and the fruits in the mountains could not be sold at high prices. Only 30 or so of the 88 households left, and those who stayed were still missing. If they want to be relocated, the appearance of the village will become even more "impossible to look at".

“The village cannot be abandoned.” Xu Bo, secretary of the Xijiao Township Party Committee, said that in May 2023, Yulianggou launched a "100-day campaign" to "take off dirty clothes and replace the old appearance with a new look" by moving firewood and haystacks, clearing mud and building roads.

"Why have you been messing around like this for so many years?" "You can just tear down the bungalow and move it away." Faced with the incomprehension of some villagers, the party organizations at the two levels of the village explained and led the masses to work together.

"At that time, I didn't dare to think about developing tourism. I just wanted to make the village clean and beautiful, so that the villagers would not want to leave." Xu Bo said.

After renovation, Yulianggou is clean. The village has also painted a cultural wall, built a sea of ​​five-color flowers, a flower and grass landscape belt, etc. The villagers were convinced, "Our hometown is really beautiful, no worse than the parks in the city." More and more people took a walk in the village after dinner.

The "beautiful" Yulianggou also attracted the attention of tourists. On the road at the entrance of the village, cars stopped from time to time, and tourists came down to take photos. Some even made videos and posted them on various online platforms. Yulianggou slowly began to gain "famousness."

“At first they came in groups of three or five, and later they came in cars and trucks. Thousands of people came during holidays.” Yuan Fengmei, who runs a small shop in Yulianggou, said that in I have lived in Yulianggou for half my life, and I never thought that it would become a tourist attraction and that so many people would come.

The influx of tourists has brought Yulianggou an "unexpected surprise". Facing the needs of tourists for buying mountain products, eating mountain fruits, admiring the scenery, and tasting farm food, Yulianggou decisively developed tourism.

"We have invested a total of more than 3 million yuan in widening asphalt roads, renovating cottages, and building landscapes such as small bridges, flowing water, and stone platforms with stacked water." said Zhang Yongyu, deputy secretary of the Liangjia Village Party Branch.

Yulianggou has become popular, and villagers who have left their homes have returned to their hometowns to open B&Bs, run farmhouses, and sell mountain products. In the past, fruits that could not be sold for 1 yuan in the market have now multiplied their prices several times without leaving home.

"Business is so booming during the tourist season that I don't even dare to sell snacks. The children take a long time to pick out snacks, and other tourists can't get in." Yuan Fengmei said with a smile.

Flower viewing in spring, water play in summer, picking in autumn, and enjoying snow in winter. Yulianggou has now built a large stage, lawn square, fashionable tourist cars and cabins, etc., and has become a comprehensive tourist attraction, leisure vacation, and cultural experience. An integrated rural tourism destination.

It is understood that since 2023, Yulianggou has received a total of 1 million tourists, and the per capita annual income of villagers has increased by 28,000 yuan.

"This winter we plan to build ultra-long slides and develop snow disco and other ice and snow projects to allow tourists to experience the charm of Yulianggou in winter." Zhang Yongyu said.
