The Fragrance of Jasmine
The Fragrance of Jasmine
Luhe is the birthplace of the world-renowned folk song classic "Jasmine Flower." In the winter of 1942, He Fang, a 14-year-old soldier from the Huainan Masses Troupe of the New Fourth Army, discovered this musical "rare blossom" at the foot of Jinniu Mountain in Babaiqiao Town, Luhe. After "Jasmine Flower" became famous worldwide, Mr. He Fang visited the foot of Jinniu Mountain over ten times to "trace its roots," and collaborated with media outlets such as China Central Television, Dragon TV, and Jiangsu TV to produce several documentaries including "The Fragrant Years" and "The Fragrant Moment."
Today, with the establishment of the "Jasmine Flower" Folk Song Inspiration Monument at the foot of Jinniu Mountain, visiting the site to trace the "Fragrance of Jasmine" has become one of the featured tourism activities in the Jinniu Lake Scenic Area.
