Majinhe Scenic Area, located in Beisuo village in Xinreng county of Qianxinan Bouyei and Miao autonomous prefecture, is a national 3A-level scenic area. Recently, flowers including peach blossoms, plum blossoms, pear blossoms and rape flowers have all bloomed, attracting many visitors. This scenic region is quite close to the city and has become the first choice for office workers who seek fun and relaxation during weekends.

The scenic area combines tourism with agricultural industry. What's planted in the region has ornamental value as well as market value. Local residents applaud this move because tourists get to enjoy themselves and local people benefit from it.

Some villagers own peach gardens and launch activities such as peach-picking to entertain visitors, which has become very popular. It brings income to villagers and helps lift more people out of poverty.
