In March, 2009, Anji County started distributing 30-million-worth

tourism coupons all over China, inviting tourists to see “Anji, a

beautiful pastoral of China”. The coupons were first distributed among

cities in the Yangtze River Delta and Hangzhou was the first to get the

coupons.

Anji, a rural county in northern Zhejiang Province, is famed for its

bamboo forests. On January 15, 2008, the county’s people’s congress

adopted a resolution to build itself into a county with “China’s

Beautiful Villages”.

Before the ambitious project was launched on a large-scale

across the county, Anji was already recognized as the Home of

Bamboo and a national ecological model. The latest project aims to

reshape Anji into a rural prototype of China. What the county wants is

the most beautiful rural vista, the cleanest village appearance, a rural

economy that best fits with regional characteristics, most full-fledged

public services, most flourishing regional culture, and a happiest rural

life.

The project is to refurbish all of the county’s 187 administrative

villages. The whole county is to be redesigned as a tourism zone in

the master plan, each village is to be remodeled as a tourism attraction

and each house is to be rebuilt as a separate villa. The county has

formulated an outline and a general implementation plan for the 10-

year project to translate the dream into reality. The towns across the

county have dreamed up their individual corresponding designs to

improve environment, local economy, public service and rural lifestyle.

The cost for the project is estimated to be 12-14 billion yuan.

How can the county with a yearly revenue of 1.5 billion afford such a

large-scale project? The county government has set up a fund and

put 200 million a year into the special coffer. The money will not be

allocated as capital. It will be issued as grants and awards after micro-

projects are completed. The financial support is a chain: the county

government gives a certain amount of awards, the county government

issues a certain amount of awards, villages chip in out of their own

purses, enterprises contribute a part of needed capital, and investors

from outside the county are encouraged to participate in individual

village projects. Some money can be raised through markets. At

present, 136 businesses in the county have teamed up with 125

administrative villages to kick off their separate projects. 370 million

has been committed for 424 village programs by first batch of 61

“China’s Beautiful Villages”.

The county conducted its first acceptance check at the end of

2008. Fifty villages were found up to standard.

Xie Shaoming, a farmer in the village of Shiling, was one of the

first villagers that responded to the project. With a remodeling plan

done by a professional designer, the house went under a facelift

project. Without any major structural change, the house now looks

completely different at the cost of less than 40,000 yuan. The villa-

styled house merges perfectly with the environment.

Shanchuan Town, a rural area with 92% of its land covered by

vegetation, has benefited from the county project. The town has

cleaned up some untidy spots in areas between villages, installed

household wastewater treatment projects into most villages, set up a

network of refuse disposal that covers all the villages, and introduced

a clean drinking water system into 90% of the households. Nowadays,

investors come to choose projects formulated by the town planners.

It is now way beyond the phase when the county grabbed all kinds of

investments without asking too many questions.

Shiling Village is now a rural destination that offers a special

entertainment. Twenty-eight households in the village run their family

businesses as a one-stop dine and wine hospitality. Tourists come to

unwind and enjoy rural diet. Nowadays, there are more than 500

household restaurants in picturesque villages across Anji which cater

to urban visitors who come to enjoy a pastoral scenery of bamboo

forests, bubbling streams and mountains. The village is now accessed

by a five-km road lined with 2,000 crape myrtle.

For eight consecutive years, Anji has led the province in terms of

per capita income in its rural area. The county is known for its highly

specialized rural industries. Huangdu, home to eight prize-winning

white-tea enterprises, is a village of 420 households. The per capita

income of the village was 15,600 yuan last year. The villagers have

more than 100 cars. Eight families in the village live with village

subsidies, victimized by long-term diseases or disability. The rest of

412 households now live in their villa-styled villas. White tea is now a

big business in Anji. The output value of the white tea for 2009 is

estimated to be 675 million yuan.

Regional culture is another highlight of the new rural

reconstruction project. Villages keep their distinct features and

traditions. The village of Yutiao has hundreds of amateur painters and

calligraphers. Some of them make a living by painting on paper-fans

for a local business. Nowadays, the village has an institute where

amateur artists gather. Guishanchang Village is going to build a

museum to reproduce its ancient bamboo-rafting history. In good old

days, the villagers transported bamboo rafts to the outside world.

Nowadays, Anji is included in a UN-network for habitats for

sustainable cooperation and development. The inclusion means that

the county government is the first in China that has qualified to apply

for a UN-habitat award. □
