Xiangyu Ecological Park
Xiangyu Ecological Park is located in Chenji Town, Yizheng City, known as the "Little Yangzhou of the Western Hills." Situated at the border of Jiangsu and Anhui provinces, it enjoys convenient transportation—just 30 kilometers from Yangzhou and only a 30-minute drive from Yizheng. It is a leisure and sightseeing agro-ecological park that integrates guestrooms, conferences, summer retreats, recreation, and dining. The park has a total investment of 10 million yuan, covering an area of over 2,400 acres, including approximately 2,100 acres of water surface and 300 acres of land. Currently, it has developed 150 acres of tea plantations, 100 acres of fruit-picking areas, and 50 acres of flowers and seedlings.
Established in 2004, the park was originally a tea production and sales enterprise. To leverage the advantages of its green tea fields, the company relocated in 2007 to the scenic Yangzhuang Tashan Lake in Chenji Town. Relying on its hundred-acre tea plantation and the beautiful natural landscape of Tashan Lake, it developed agricultural sightseeing projects. With a tranquil environment, fresh air, and strong rural charm, it is an ideal leisure destination for tour groups and private travelers.
Stepping into Xiangyu Tea Ecological Park, visitors are greeted by lush greenery and vast stretches of water, creating a feeling of returning to nature. Here, guests can take part in farming activities—picking, processing, and tasting tea, as well as watching tea ceremonies—to relax their minds in the subtle fragrance of tea. They can also gather with friends for fishing by the lake, hunting in the woods, feeding poultry, or picking fresh fruits in the grape, strawberry, pear, and winter jujube orchards, experiencing the pastoral life described as "picking chrysanthemums beneath the eastern fence." Guests can cruise the lake and mountain scenery, admiring the beauty of "autumn waters blending seamlessly with the boundless sky," while bamboo rafts and speedboats provide a water-based playground... Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, visitors can immerse themselves in nature and experience the harmony of man and the universe.
If the natural beauty and serenity of the ecological park offer guests a moment of mental peace, the integration of modern elements provides a completely new experience. Xiangyu Tea Ecological Park offers comprehensive leisure and entertainment facilities. The guestrooms, built to star-rated standards and designed in Southeast Asian architectural style, come fully equipped with digital TVs, business meeting rooms, chess and card rooms, gyms, KTV, and internet access. Though situated in the countryside, guests remain connected to the world, with top-tier hardware and software facilities. The park’s dining features distinctive farm-style dishes and rustic game flavors that are sure to whet the appetite and leave a lasting impression. Currently, there are over 10 varieties of fruit trees, thousands of free-range poultry, and abundant fish and shrimp in the lake. There are dedicated fishing ponds, basketball courts, and table tennis rooms. The “Xiangyu Brand” organic Liuyangchun tea, farm-style cuisine, and “Xiangyu Brand” free-range chicken eggs have received widespread praise.
In response to government calls for diversification and further development, the company aims to enhance standards and taste, boost the local economy, and expand its scale based on existing foundations. By making full use of its resource advantages, it strives to grow stronger and larger.
"Isn’t it a joy to have friends visit from afar?" The developing Xiangyu Ecological Park aims to become a premium ecological park, continuously improving its service facilities and standards. In the coming years, the park will further increase investment, expand its services, and strive to become the leading agricultural leisure and sightseeing ecological park in the province within two to three years, adding luster to rural tourism.
