Yan'an's characteristic tourism attracts overseas "Generation Z"
Tajik boy Li Fei and Li Na from Russia, who are traveling and doing business in China for the first time, took a group photo before and after an exclusive interview with China Daily.
China Daily, September 11th - China is an amazing country with a long history in Yan'an. Here you can see the wonderful performance telling the historical story of Yan'an, which is very perfect. "When I return to Tajikistan, I will recommend my friends to Yan'an and experience the unique cultural charm here," said Li Fei, a Tajikistan young man who is visiting China for tourism and business for the first time in an exclusive interview with China Daily.
The wonderful performance mentioned by Li Fei refers to the immersive song and dance drama "Yan'an Thirteen Years" at the Jin Yan'an Scenic Area. It is based on the street scenery of Jin Yan'an in the 1930s, selecting representative figures and deeds at that time, and telling the red story through technological innovation, reproducing the tumultuous years of Yan'an for thirteen years.
The performance broke the limitation of time and space, led the audience back to the long historical river filled with gunpowder smoke, and reviewed the great process of the CPC from small to large, from weak to strong, from low to peak, and finally successfully to the new China. Bring tourists a brand new and immersive revolutionary traditional education and red culture experience.
Li Fei, a Tajik boy who is traveling and doing business in China for the first time, is in an exclusive interview with a reporter from China Daily.
Li Fei felt that the most touching scene was when the Red Army had to leave their children in Yan'an to fight against the enemy. He believed that the enemy was despicable because the love of parents for their children was universal throughout the world.
"After watching the performance, I feel that the Chinese people are very powerful, and they have a firm belief that one day peace will be achieved," said Li Fei.
Li Na from Russia is conducting an exclusive interview with a reporter from China Daily.
Li Na from Russia is a student at Xi'an Foreign Studies University, and after watching the performance, she also felt very impressive.
"It allows people to imagine the real world situation at that time, with a feeling of being there firsthand. The strong emotions and emotions are beyond words, and I am so moved that I want to cry," Li Na said.
Although I have heard of Yan'an before, this is Li Na's first time visiting this city. Although the journey was tiring and physically and mentally exhausted, she was still full of curiosity about this place, especially some historical scenes that brought people back to the special historical period in Yan'an. Li Na said she really likes the history of Yan'an and will definitely come back to Yan'an for tourism.
Red tourism plays an important role in the tourism industry of Yan'an that cannot be ignored. Promoting the high-quality development of red tourism in Yan'an City is of great practical significance for inheriting the genes of red culture and promoting urban economic growth, especially for overseas understanding of Chinese history.
Every year, in addition to receiving domestic tourists and study groups, this place also receives many foreign envoys to visit, learn, and experience folk customs. Foreign tourists come to Yan'an more to experience, try, and learn about the folk culture of northern Shaanxi, where more than 30 intangible cultural heritages are gathered. Foreign friends can learn Paper Cuttings, play Ansai waist drum, and sing folk songs in northern Shaanxi, Ma Nan, assistant general manager of Shaanxi Tourism Yan'an Company, said.
Red tourism has become a major characteristic of high-quality economic development in Yan'an. Taking Jin Yan'an Scenic Area as an example, since its opening in 2016, it has received more than 10 million tourists from all over the country. As of the end of August this year, a total of 3.7 million tourists have been received, with a revenue of 130 million yuan, making contributions to driving local economic development, especially upstream and downstream development of the industrial chain.
The most important benefit of developing red tourism in Yan'an is to benefit the people. For example, the tourism industry has driven the development of the surrounding catering and homestay industries, not only solving the employment problems of local people, but also promoting the increase of people's income and the improvement of living standards. Shen Gang, Deputy General Manager of Yan'an Company of Shaanxi Tourism Group, introduced that.
Yan'an is also actively exploring various ways to generate income, promoting innovative and integrated development of multiple industries, promoting the interweaving and infiltration of red resources with rural tourism, ecotourism, research tourism, sports tourism, and cultural tourism, and creating a distinctive regional red cultural tourism industry belt.
Yan'an, a city of great significance in the development history of China, continuously enriches the cultural connotations and forms of red tourism experiences, meets the diverse spiritual and cultural needs of the people, achieves the unified and harmonious development of social and economic benefits of red tourism scenic spots, and promotes high-quality urban economic development. It is becoming a business card for Chinese people to revisit history and for foreigners to understand China.
