What is the experience of eating and living in a tree? Ankang Village, Xu Tao Town, Mengyin County, Shandong Province, is a famous tourist attraction, attracting crowds of tourists and a unique "tree house".
"Laikang Village has more than 1 1,000 holiday visitors. During the Spring Festival next year,17' Tree House' is fully booked. " Wu Shuo, head of Ankang Village Villa.
A "tree house" is a hotel in a tree. The villagers built a wooden house among the tall chestnut trunks by relying on the local chestnut forest. The cabin is spacious and transparent, with big bed, air conditioning and shower room. There is also a trunk that penetrates "into" from the floor and looks very interesting.
"The trunk is still growing and will sprout in spring." Wu Xilai introduced that the "tree house" uses environmentally-friendly materials as load-bearing columns and will not destroy the growing chestnut trees.
Looking from the windowsill of the "Tree House", the mountains in the distance are rolling and green everywhere, and the mountains set each other off in Shui Ying.
Ankang village is located on the south bank of Jinshui River and the north side of Mengshan Mountain range, built on the mountain, and the villagers live by the water. Walking on the village road, every household is a newly renovated farmhouse, and chestnut trees over a hundred years old can be seen everywhere. The colorful river pebble creative wall adds a bit of color to the village.
Ankang village was not like this before. "There are garbage dumps, woodpiles and stone piles everywhere, and domestic sewage is dumped." Wu Dui said: Twenty years ago, when he came home from working in other places, he was very anxious when he saw the situation in the village and saw that the big chestnut trees that grew naturally were cut down for firewood.
Relying on mountains to eat mountains, why not "eat trees by trees"? Wu Xilai had a bold idea: build a house on a big tree and have a farmhouse.

In 200 1 year, he found an old carpenter in the village and built the first "tree house". Relying on the unique advantages of chestnut resources, Ankang village opened the restaurant to the tree and moved B&B to the tree. At the same time, we will make great efforts to harness the landscape, improve the appearance of the village, hire professional companies to plan and design, use the century-old chestnut garden and the mountain lake to plan and build chestnut garden campsites, suspension bridges and other attractions, and carry out colorful activities such as chestnut picking festival, chestnut food festival and bonfire party.
The "tree house" attracted many tourists. The catering income of the whole village reaches 3 million yuan every year, and the poor mountain village has become a veritable rich village. In the past, the villagers were eager to move out, but now they are rushing back to the village to start a business.
Zhao Yingli, director of Mengyin County Branch of Linyi City Ecological Environment Bureau, said that Mengyin County has strengthened its awareness of the red line, not destroying mountains, irrigating water or cutting down trees, and taking the improvement of ecological environment quality year by year as a binding requirement for regional development. They took the lead in implementing the "forest leader system" in Linyi City. In recent years, they have planted more than 20,000 mu of trees every year, with a forest coverage rate of 54.69%.
Bai Quan Yu Village, not far from Ankang Village, is a "national civilized village". Bai Quan Yucun used to be a granite mining field, leaving a huge abandoned mine pit. In response to the call for ecological construction, Fang, secretary of the Party branch of Bai Quan Yucun, led the whole village to close the quarry, seek social capital, build dam reservoirs, plant seedlings10.5 million, and develop orchards10.6 million mu. Eco-tourism projects have been built on abandoned mines, farmhouses have been developed, and more than 160 rural surplus laborers have been resettled. In Baiquanyu, the per capita net income of villagers will reach 36,000 yuan this year.

Today's Bai Quan Village is quiet and beautiful, surrounded by mountains and waters, just like a paradise; The mountain wind blows over the pond dam, arousing blue waves; The ancient trees beside the village are towering, and the sound of turtledoves is endless ... The former rock ruins have been "transformed" into an ecological grand view garden.
Wang Liyun, secretary of Mengyin County Party Committee, said that Mengyin will insist that Qingshan will not relax and strive to draw a beautiful ecological picture from green to rich.
