Plum Wine from Xiling Snow Mountain
The national scenic area of Xiling Snow Mountain is located in Dayi County, Chengdu City, Sichuan Province (95 kilometers from Chengdu), covering a total area of 482.8 square kilometers. The main peak, Da Xue Shan (Great Snow Mountain), stands at an elevation of 5,364 meters, making it the highest peak in the Chengdu area. Perennially snow-capped, the mountain glistens brilliantly under sunlight, presenting a stunningly beautiful and majestic sight. The great Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu once praised this view and wrote the famous quatrain: “The window frames the snow-crowned western hills eternal; / The door moors ships from eastern Wu that come from afar.” The mountain thus earned the name Xiling (Western Hills) Snow Mountain.
Plum wine from Xiling Snow Mountain is the pride of the locals and unmatched by any other fruit wine. Legend has it that since ancient times, no other fruit wine has possessed the enduring vitality and timeless charm of plum wine.
Plum wine embodies the essence of “the form of water, the character of fire,” making it an excellent choice for gifts, presents, or serving to honored guests. At this exhibition, the fruit wine was highly popular among citizens, attracting a continuous stream of buyers who gathered to purchase.
