Besides visiting the shooting locations, tourists can also pick grapes and raspberries, drink and brew red wine at a chateau, make handicrafts, have a barbecue and buy local agricultural specialties.
Zhao Chao, deputy Party secretary of the town, says it will further develop rural tourism with a combination of agricultural resources. It is also constructing a film and television themed site to let tourists learn about the history of the town in chronological order. It will also serve as a red tourism site and training center.
He says development of tourism will also create more jobs and income sources for locals. The number of tourists is expected to surpass 500,000 this year, with tourism revenue of up to 20 million yuan.
