Shaoshan, named after Emperor Shun's southern tour to play Shao music, became famous within China and abroad for being the birthplace of the late Chinese leader Mao Zedong, and Hunan was also called "the hometown of great men".

Today's Shaoshan, with green pines, bamboos and natural beauty, is a national demonstration base for patriotism education, a national-level scenic spot, an outstanding tourist city in China, and a national 5A-level tourist attraction. It receives more than 1 million tourists every year.

Shibadong village in Huayuan county in western Hunan is the place where "targeted poverty alleviation" was initiated.

Since 2013, it has not only found a "reproducible and popularized" way of rural vitalization, but also embarked on a new road of "tourism plus industrial development model".

The per capita net income of Shibadong has increased from 1,668 yuan in 2013 to 20,167 yuan, becoming a microcosm of China's major historic achievements in poverty alleviation.
