2023-06-26

During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, Zhamao Village, a Tibetan village on the plateau, attracted many tourists. "We saw the videos sent by others. Today, we specially saw that there are mountains, water and Tibetan rural homestays, which really deserve the reputation." Ma Fugui, a tourist from Xining, Qinghai Province, said while holding up his mobile phone to take pictures of the beautiful scenery. Zhamao Village is located in Zhamao Township, Tongren City, Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, in the hinterland of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau. Adjacent to Maixiu National Forest Park and Zhamao Reservoir on the upper reaches of the Longwu River, Zhamao Village is home to three Tibetan Buddhism temples, with unique natural and cultural resources. The stone tablet at the entrance of the village is engraved with the words "Zhamao, the most beautiful Tibetan township on the plateau". Entering the village, the road is flat, and the unique Tibetan style houses on both sides add a touch of ethnic charm. Zhamao Village has 227 households and over 1000 people, with a cultivated area of approximately 880 acres. It is a semi agricultural and semi pastoral village. The villagers recalled that in the past, the roads were bumpy and muddy, the houses were dilapidated and rudimentary, and the water and electricity networks were blocked. The villagers who lived here relied on barley and wheat cultivation for self-sufficiency, and the channels for increasing income were limited. Since 2014, with the implementation of projects such as traditional village protection and beautiful rural construction, dilapidated houses have been renovated, public transportation lines have been opened, and ethnic cultural squares have been built. Zhamao Village has gradually become a multi-functional village, giving it a new look. In the afternoon, at the "Qian Sang Bie Yuan" scenic spot in Zhamao Village, tourists from Hubei, Gansu, and other places stood high and admired the beautiful scenery of the plateau. Zhao Yilin from Beijing is the project leader of the "Qiansang Bieyuan" tourist attraction. He introduced that in the early stages of scenic area construction, the government invested special funds for rural revitalization to carry out infrastructure construction, and enterprises distributed dividends to villagers on schedule. With the development of the local tourism industry, this year, enterprises plan to collaborate with townships to select and build ten high-quality courtyards in nearby villages to develop ecotourism. They will provide free training in catering, management, and other aspects. Through the business model of "government led+company operation+public welfare", villagers will learn how to operate and continuously improve the village's "hematopoietic" function. Relying on green mountains and waters to help villagers embark on the 'road to prosperity' is the foothold of rural revitalization, "said Wang Jun'an, Secretary of the Party Committee of Zhamao Township. In recent years, Zhamao Township has continuously explored development paths, and under the premise of ecological protection, following the concept of 'one village, one product, one village, one charm', has invested more than 30 million yuan to build tourism supporting facilities such as Zhamao Village's tourist vacation and leisure camps, and through hosting horse racing events, Tibetan opera performances, etc, Develop the industry of Tibetan folk experience and homestay reception services. From an unknown Tibetan village to a "National Ecological and Cultural Village" and a "National Key Village for Rural Tourism" with ecological empowerment and economic development, Zhamao Village's development path is a microcosm of rural revitalization in Qinghai. According to statistics, the number of tourists in Zhamao Village exceeded 20000 in 2021, and the per capita disposable income of the entire village in 2022 was about 13800 yuan. 24-year-old mother Maoji is a local girl who returned to her hometown for employment. After graduating from college, she came to work in the "Qiansang Bieyuan" scenic area this year. Niang Maoji said that she is not the only one who solves employment problems at home. After working in the scenic area, my 80-year-old grandfather often asked me if there were many tourists. He was very happy to hear that there were many vehicles and rooms were fully booked recently, "said Niang Maoji. After developing rural tourism
