Detailed introduction

The Youyu spirit is a persevering "tree planting spirit". The Youyu spirit is generated in the practical process of planting trees and improving the ecology. At the beginning of liberation, under the pressure of "the sand advances and the people retreat", the people of Youyu faced the survival crisis of relocating the whole county.

Afforestation, wind protection and sand fixation, and improvement of living conditions are not only the first requirement for the survival and development of the people, but also the first task of the county party committee and county government in establishing and governing the county.
