Seal of approval for farmer houses

FARMER houses have been added to the list of acceptable venues for government meetings and training events, the Hangzhou Finance Bureau announced.

Known in Chinese as nongjiale, these small and simple hostels and restaurants are usually run by farmers.

A total of 71 farmer houses in Hangzhou have been listed as eligible sites for municipal-level meetings and training sessions through 2016.

The bureau said the idea is to support farmer houses while also practicing frugality.

All farmer houses listed are priced below 260 yuan (US$41) per day per person for accommodation and meeting space. Those offering only food and meeting space are priced under 120 yuan per day per person.
