Changli Honey Pear

Changli Honey Pear

　　Changli Honey Pear: Named for its sweet, honey-like juice. As the best-quality pears are produced in the Lianshan area of the county, they are also known as Lianshan Honey Pears. They have a golden-yellow skin, white flesh, abundant juice, a fragrant taste, and are sweet, crisp, and refreshing.

　　 Changli Honey Pears have a long cultivation history, with an annual output of more than 10 million jin. Lianshan Township, at the eastern foot of Jieshi Mountain, is the primary production hub. A specialty fresh fruit of Changli County, these pears are golden-yellow in color, uniformly sized, and feature small pits, thin skins, fine-textured flesh, abundant juice, a sweet and crisp taste, high sugar content, and excellent storage ability—even when stored in cellars for half a year, their flavor remains rich and color stays vivid. Changli Honey Pears are not only sold across several domestic provinces but are also marketed under the name “Tianjin Honey Pears,” exported from the Tianjin port to Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. In the early 1950s, Lianshan Honey Pears were once presented as a famous product of the Tangshan region to Chairman Mao Zedong. A news photographer captured the moment the Chairman received the bountiful fruit, an image that brought great joy to local residents and left a significant mark in the history of Lianshan Honey Pears.
