In recent years, Meihua Village in Xidu Town, Hengyang County, Hengyang City has made efforts to develop the homestay inn economy to improve rural tourism. It has transformed the idle houses of villagers into characteristic homestay inns that integrate beautiful natural environment and perfect service facilities.

Spacious and flat asphalt roads run through the village. The Meihua homestay cluster attracts many citizens and tourists. There is a courtyard, a tea garden, a restaurant, a shared vegetable garden and other supporting facilities. In the sunset, tourists stroll in the courtyard, take photos, and experience a unique rural journey.

The head of the homestay cluster said, “Tourists come here for company team building and family gatherings. Nowadays, the rooms are booked up on weekends.”

As night falls, the village and homestay cluster are lit up by dazzling neon lights. Tourists taste rural dishes, have a barbecue, and watch fireworks performances in the courtyard.
