From Lin Yong, in Yanqing county, Beijing

Yanqing, My Hometown

This is my hometown, Yanqing, a county of Beijing. Located 74 km northwest of Urban Beijing, Yanqing has a total area of about 2,000sqkm with a population of 300,000.

Nature endowed Yanqing with distinct landforms. Mountains, gorges, swamps, grasslands, rivers, lakes and plains make up a complete and diverse natural environment system.

Yanqing won the honors of National Ecological County, China's Best Ecological Tourism County, China's Leisure Tourism County, China's Prominent Tourism County,etc.

Yanqing held 11th International Grape Conference last year successfully. And this year, the World Potato Conference will be hold in Yanqing. So does the International Horticultural Exposition in 2019. And we are bidding for 24th Winter Olympic Games.

As a local of Yanqing, I'm really proud of this. And I think Yanqing is an fantastic place to live. Welcome to Yanqing.
