Chongming promotes rural homestays
Print Edition
THE First Chongming Countryside Homestay Festival was held on November 11 alongside the Fumin River, in Hongqiao Village of Jianshe Town.
Stage performances, as well as various farmer fairs and other activities, attracted many people.
The festival also featured fresh figs, Chongming liquor, freshwater crab and other specialties for visitors to try and purchase.
Over the years, Jianshe has made great efforts to develop the accommodation industry by virtue of its unique regional advantages.
In central Chongming, Jianshe has obvious regional advantages. It’s adjacent to the South Garden, site of the 10th China Flower Expo, the S7 Expressway and the planned high-speed railway along the Yangtze River.
There are now over 260 homestays (farmhouses) in town, accounting for about a quarter of the total in Chongming.
There are not only boutique homestays in town, but also budget B&B chains, as well as various homestay communities.
Jianshe developed a miniprogram to promote the local homestay business and specialties. Through the miniprogram which debuted last month, users can book and shop online.
It also established a homestay group, not only to help them promote and market, but also teach butler skills and provide information about policies and regulations to further nurture the homestay industry.
