Hebei Ya Pear

　　Hebei Ya Pear: With a well-shaped form, golden-yellow color, thin skin, tender and fine flesh, crisp and juicy texture, and a pleasantly sweet and sour taste, it is also resistant to storage and transport. Known for its benefits in clearing the lungs and resolving phlegm, as well as moistening internal organs, it has been praised by the medical community as the “natural White Tiger Decoction” and is recorded in Li Shizhen’s Compendium of Materia Medica. In the spring of 2000, the Shandong Provincial Forestry Department and the Shandong Provincial Economic Forest Association awarded Guanxian County the title of “Home of Ya Pear.” Annual production reaches 210 million kilograms.
