On Nov 20 to 22, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will carry out visits in Ningxia Hui autonomous region.
With the theme of "the Wine Industry on the Gobi Desert", over ten diplomats and representatives from foreign institutions in China, such as those of Ghana, Bulgaria, Japan, Australia, and Germany, will visit Ningxia to have a comprehensive experience of the local wine industry and take in the unique scenery of Northwest China.
Ningxia Hui autonomous region
In Ningxia, the mighty Helan Mountains stand proudly, while the red Liupan Mountains rise majestically under the white clouds and blue sky. The winding Yellow River has nurtured the beautiful and fertile Ningxia Plain, creating "an oasis in the northwest" with the fragrance of rice and fish, and the aroma of fruits.
Ningxia’s winery
Ningxia has unique advantages in growing grapes for wine, and the quality of the wines at the east foothills of the Helan Mountains is of international standard. Ningxia’s wines have won more than 1,100 awards in top international competitions such as Decanter, and a comprehensive pilot zone for the open development of the grape and wine industry has been approved for construction in the region by the national government.
Ningxia Hui autonomous region
Ningxia is also a unique tourist destination in the western region, with 5A-level tourist attractions - Shahu Lake, Shapotou, Zhenbeibao West Film Lot, and Shuidonggou - and is striving to build a national comprehensive tourism demonstration zone.
In Northwest China, Ningxia, a golden zone for the wine industry, a fertile land for cultural prosperity, and a mecca of well-being for the people, is rising. Blessed with abundant resources, Ningxia shines.
