Longwantun Cherry Valley Pick-Your-Own Farm

Longwantun Cherry Valley Pick-Your-Own Farm

Cherry Valley, as the name suggests, is a valley filled with cherry trees. When all the cherries are ripe, the whole valley becomes a sea of purple-red, and even the valley wind carries hints of cherry flavor. The cherries here are cultivated by 63 farmers from the nearby Longwantun Town. Bathed in sunlight, the purple-red cherries glisten like wax, making it almost hard to bear picking them. But the cherries are simply too delicious to resist—clusters of them grow densely on the branches. Just spot a bunch, pluck it, and you’ll get at least five or six cherries at once. Entering the valley through the bamboo hut at Cherry Valley, you’ll find that the entire area is terraced, so the cherries ripen step by step. With mountain springs scattered throughout, the cherries have been nourished by sweet spring water since they were tiny—thinking about it, these cherries might actually be happier than we are.

It’s fair to say that the cherries in Cherry Valley are both affordable and delicious. Picking your own here costs just 25 yuan per jin. Aside from the low price, the scenery in the valley is also a highlight. Standing in the middle of Cherry Valley, you’ll see a blue sky dotted with white clouds above, cherry orchards heavy with fruit all around, and birds eyeing the ripe cherries with longing. The whole scene is like something out of a fairy tale.
