Bright spring sunshine, come to Lihe for a different kind of spring getaway
Gongliao is not only about music festivals and the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant; we would like to invite you and us to look from a different angle and get to know anew a corner of land on the Northeast Coast. The [Lihe Little Granary] spring mini-trip is making a hot debut!
The water terraces in the back hills of Gongliao have always grown their own seedlings; that small patch of deep green seedlings in the seedbed will spread out into this season's abundant harvest.
