Starting in 2016, the local government in Erhe has been focusing on winter tourism by ramping up capital investments to the area. In 2017, the village's tourism revenue exceeded 10 million yuan ($1.48 million). The tourist boom enabled a large number of local villagers to increase their incomes by operating farm restaurants and selling tourism goods. [Photo by Zhang Nan/Xinhua]
