Huaxin Jian Platform

Huaxin Jian Platform is a national AAA-level tourist attraction.

The national AAA-level scenic area of Huaxin Jian Platform is located in JianTai Village, Yuanshi Town, Shifang City. It features numerous ancient cultural sites, including the King Yong’s Tomb, the Ancient Jian Platform, Junping Spring, the Former Residence of Jiang Wan, Jindai Bridge, and Yongxi Temple. It is a rural tourism landscape characterized by “lush trees, standing Han dynasty que gates, grey tiles and white walls, fragrant fruits and melons, and flowing streams.”

“Using flowers as a medium, using flowers as messengers to breathe new life into the Han and Shu culture of Jian Tai Village—letting it flourish brilliantly in all seasons like floral messages and gain widespread renown”—this explains how Jian Tai Village came to be known as “Huaxin Jian Platform.” With its unique advantages, the village has become a shining example in Shifang.

Jian Tai Village has a profound historical and cultural heritage. It is home to numerous ancient cultural sites, including the King Yong’s Tomb, the Archery Platform, Junping Spring, the Former Residence of Jiang Wan, Jindai Bridge, and Yongxi Temple. Key scenic elements include the “Dafeng” Plaza, the statue of Yong Chi, relief walls, the Han Dynasty Historical Relics Exhibition Hall, Han dynasty que gates, poetic stone landscapes, replicas of Han dynasty historical and cultural symbols, and the ruins of Junping Spring. These have notably enhanced the village’s tourism and cultural significance.

The village gets its name from the ancient archery platform found within it. According to folklore, this platform was built during the Three Kingdoms period by Liu Bei. Today, Jian Tai Village has added new attractions such as Han dynasty que gates, poetic stone landscapes, and a Han Dynasty Historical Relics Exhibition Hall, creating a rural landscape featuring “lush trees, standing Han dynasty que gates, grey tiles and white walls, fragrant flowers and fruits, and flowing streams.”

In 2009, Jian Tai Village was designated as a “New Village Construction Demonstration Site” at both the Deyang and Shifang levels. In 2010, it was included in Sichuan Province’s comprehensive urban-rural environmental improvement project called “Fifty-One Hundred-Thousand” as a featured village. In 2012, it was recognized as a key new village complex under construction in Shifang City. During its new rural development process, the village followed an innovative development strategy known as “Four Concentrations and One Continuity,” which emphasized centralized living for villagers, centralized land transfer, centralized industry cultivation, centralized cultural development, and continuous income growth for farmers. With scientific planning as its foundation, the village coordinated the development of public infrastructure, strengthened its unique cultural identity, featured strong industrial support, and vigorously promoted the construction of modern facility agriculture, leisure sightseeing agriculture, and new-style rural residential areas. Five fully equipped new rural residential communities with architectural styles of Western Sichuan were completed, significantly improving local living and production conditions. Nearly 20 enterprises, represented by companies such as Evergrande Agricultural Industry Park, Lanjian Yujingyuan, Xilehui Planting Industry Park, and Shangyuan, have settled in Jian Tai, using transferred lands to drive adjustments in the rural industrial structure. This led to the preliminary establishment of a facility agriculture demonstration zone, a flower and nursery planting area, and a specialty dining and entertainment district—achieving seamless integration between the primary and tertiary industries in the village. Jian Tai Village was named a provincial-level demonstration site for the integrated development of industry and villages through large-scale new rural construction. The “Jian Tai Model” has been promoted across the province. In 2012, the village welcomed ten visiting delegations from municipal and provincial Party and government bodies—including those from Beijing—with more than 1,500 visitors, and received over 500,000 tourists.
