Shiqiao is the hometown of crisp pear.

Wanmu Liyuan Scenic Area is located in Shiqiao District and the north of Ningling County. There are many scenic spots in the park, such as the Royal Pear Garden, Jindingge Observation Deck, Geboguo Site, Geshi Tianling and so on. Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty sealed the Imperial Pear Garden in Zhu Youtang, and the "Centennial Pear King" who once presented pears and Chairman Mao Zedong were deeply loved by tourists. In the pear garden, the scenic avenue and the scenic trail are in harmony, and "farmhouse" hotels and hotels can be seen everywhere, providing tourists with the most local services.

Stroll through the pear garden, breathe fresh air, enjoy flowers and fruits, eat farmhouse meals, experience farmhouse customs, and make tourists linger. Jinding Xie Hua crisp pear has been designated as a national geographical indication protection product, and the central scenic spot has also been awarded as a national demonstration site for leisure agriculture and sightseeing. With rich pear planting resources, Shiqiao has successfully developed local tourism. So far, seven pear festivals and three crisp pear picking festivals have been held. Every April, the local government holds a grand opening ceremony of the Pear Blossom Festival. Pear blossoms in the 10,000-mu pear garden are as white as snow, attracting a large number of tourists to attend the opening ceremony and enjoy the flowers. In June 5438+10, crisp pears matured. After the promotion of crisp pear picking festival, more and more citizens came here to pick crisp pears by themselves, which greatly promoted the trading volume of crisp pears and publicized the good reputation of Shiqiao crisp pears.
