KUALA LUMPUR, March 18 — The 2021-2022 golden tourism season of Changjiang Li Autonomous County is in full swing and will conclude at March-end.
According to a statement, the tourism season consists of a series of tourism and cultural activities themed ‘climbing mountains in winter and appreciating flowers in spring’.
Changjiang County is located in the west of China’s Hainan Free Trade Port and is known as ‘China’s Kapok town’. It has become a popular springtime destination on Hainan Island for its gorgeous Kapok.
Also, Changjiang County has recently been awarded the title of ‘Hainan Forest City’, according to The Convergent Media Center of Changjiang County.
In Changjiang, visitors can appreciate the kapok flowers next to the Changhua River and visiting the Bawangling Forest is a must, as well as mountain climbing at the Nature Reserve. The series of attractions has become a signature experience for those travelling in Changjiang in winter and spring.
Every year from February to March, the picturesque scenery of mountains and kapok woods along the Changhua River form what’s called ‘The Ten-Mile Natural Gallery’. The Changhua River banks are transformed by a gorgeous kapok red.
The well-known Bawangling Forest Nature Reserve also adds brilliance to the Changjiang scenery. Here, visitors can not only climb cliffs, trek in jungles, trace the river’s source and explore caves, but also appreciate the Hainan gibbon, rarer even than the giant panda.
In addition to the unique beautiful natural scenery, Changjiang also boasts the rich customs of Li villages. The Hongshui Village of Wangxia Town is a Li ethnic group village which still retains the ancient boat house, known as the ‘living fossil of Li culture’.
