Sichuan online Leshan Xun (Wang Fei) In the first quarter, Jinkouhe received nearly 200,000 tourists, and the comprehensive tourism income was 67.8348 million yuan, an increase of 12.78% over last year.
The rapid growth of the cultural tourism market benefits from the improvement of transportation — — At the end of last year, the new chengdu-kunming railway was opened to traffic, and the E-Han Expressway was connected to the Jinkou River, which has since entered the era of "double highs".
Towards the era of "high speed", the "underachievers" hiding in the depths of the canyon vowed to fight a beautiful turnaround.
To benefit from barren hills, small blueberries turn into cash cows.

Blueberry Orchard is located in the alpine valley of Xinhe Village, Yi nationality township in Gong ‘an, where more than 20 varieties and 30,000 blueberries blossom and bear fruit. Xiao Qiulin, deputy director of the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau of Jinkouhe District, said that the cultivated land in Jinkouhe District is mainly concentrated in high altitude areas. There are many barren hills and woodlands in the middle and low altitude areas, which are idle and have not brought into full play the greatest economic benefits.
"To benefit from idle barren hills and woodlands". After several investigations, since 2019, Jinkouhe District has planted 3,120 mu of alpine blueberries in Heping Yi Township and Gong ‘an Yi Township, with an annual output value of 21 million yuan last year.
Making good use of the East-West cooperation mechanism, the Jinkouhe District Government reached an agreement with Zhejiang Lanmei Technology Co., Ltd. and other enterprises to jointly develop the blueberry industry of 10,000 mu, and build an alpine blueberry garden with the integration of scenic spots in the producing areas and an idyllic park. By transferring land, working in the garden, participating in shares and sharing dividends, it established an interest linkage mechanism with the surrounding people, which only drove 249 people around to work during the construction period, achieving an increase of 4.2 million yuan in labor services.

At present, the blueberry orchard has built a comprehensive agricultural service center and 121 sightseeing picking sheds, and the blueberry harvest is in sight. Luo Xuyang, general manager of Leshan Blueprint Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. said that the construction of the park highlights the integration of agriculture and tourism, and integrates functions such as sightseeing picking, popular science tasting, "Industry-University-Research" and "entertainment shopping". "Every weekend, many citizens come to play with their children."
This is just the beginning. Xiao Qiulin introduced that according to the agreement, Zhejiang Lanmei Co., Ltd. will develop the "Lanmei No.1" intensive processing project in Jinkouhe.
At present, the dried blueberry production line with an annual output of 1,000 tons invested and built by the company has landed in Jinkouhe Industrial Park, which cooperates with the east and west of Zhejiang. By the end of 2024, the planting area of "Lanmei No.1" in the whole region will reach 12,000 mu, and the blueberry dried fruit production line can achieve full production and operation; In 2026, "Lanmei No.1" blueberry planting will be extended to the surrounding counties, and strive to reach 35,000 mu. Zhejiang Lanmei Co., Ltd. will invest in the construction of anthocyanin extraction project in Jinkouhe District. By then, the annual output value of blueberry industry in Jinkouhe River is expected to exceed 500 million yuan.
Let tourism be the engine, and the underachievers should strive for the advanced.
Crossing the city along the Dadu River, the road is surrounded by enclosures, and the sound of tinkling is one after another. "Two hydropower stations, Shaping I and Zhentouba II, are under construction." Yu Tinggang, member of the party group and deputy director of the Jinkouhe District Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau, said.
Jinkou River is rich in hydropower resources. 58 large and small hydropower stations are scattered all over the region, creating its unique lakes and mountains.

Due to the rising water level of the first-class hydropower station of Zhentouba, the turbulent Dadu River was "intercepted" here after crossing the cliffs with a total length of 26 kilometers, forming a wide water surface.
Taking advantage of this unique resource, Jinkouhe vigorously promotes the development of tourism and allows ordinary people to earn money at home. "I became a commentator in the Railway Corps Museum, and my children started a farmhouse." Wang Banghua, a villager in Shengli Village, said that villagers have started homestays and sold local products such as Laoying tea, bacon and pepper. "During the Spring Festival this year, there are so many people who come to play with us! There are not enough rooms, and the sofas are rushing to sleep. "

"It is hard to find a room, which is a sweetness and an early warning." Yu Tinggang explained that Jinkou River is rich in tourism resources, including not only the Grand Canyon, Dawa Mountain, Baixionggou and other natural landscapes, but also the Railway Corps Museum, the third-line construction culture and the Yi culture. Entering the "double-height era", the Jinkou River, which was raised in a boudoir, gradually entered people’s field of vision.
"Tourism will surely become a new engine for the economic development of Jinkouhe, but at present there are still shortcomings in our supporting facilities." Yu Tinggang said that underachievers should also strive for advancement. In order to make a turnaround, Jinkouhe will make great efforts in improving traffic conditions, equipping hotels and other infrastructure, and upgrading tourism formats.
