　　Bunkeng Village is located in the southern part of Sankeng Town, Qingxin County, Qingyuan City, Guangdong Province.

As a major grain-producing area, the village focuses primarily on growing high-quality rice and sugar oranges.

　　　　Sugar oranges are a southern fruit and a premium variety among citrus fruits. They were praised by the Yangcheng Evening News as “a standout”; originally from Sihui City, Guangdong, but the best sugar oranges come from Qingxin County, Guangdong. The oranges have crisp, juicy, and tender flesh that melts in your mouth, offering a sweet and refreshing taste. After eating them, you'll feel a soothing sensation in your throat. They are cool in nature and are known to regulate qi, resolve phlegm, moisten the lungs, cleanse the intestines, nourish blood, and strengthen the spleen. They can help treat symptoms such as poor appetite, bland taste in the mouth, and indigestion. They aid digestion, relieve phlegm and thirst, soothe qi and disperse nodules, and help prevent constipation.

　　　　In 2002, sugar oranges were named “China’s Famous and High-Quality Fruit.” In 2003, they were awarded the title of “Guangdong Provincial Famous-Brand Product,” and in 2004, they passed the national pollution-free certification.
