Juyuan Orchard
Starting its trial operation in May 2017, the Juyuan Orchard covers an area of 1,300 mu, with six main orchards of cherries, kiwi fruit, strawberries, figs, juicy peaches and vegetables. It also plants more than ten other fruit trees, including persimmons, loquats, dragon fruit, and mulberries.
Seven rivers, with a total length of 5 km and a water area of more than 100,000 square meters, allow the scenic spot to open 67 outdoor workshops and three wharfs for aquatic sports, like canoeing and kayaking.
The site has the first standard court for Counter-Strike (CS), a video game by the game's developer Valve Software in 1999, and the jungle CS playground in East China. A multi-functional building, renovated from old schoolhouses, allows visitors to dine, rest, and enjoy painting and calligraphy exhibitions.
