Also the place where the idea of "lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets" was first envisioned, Anji has become a vivid portrayal of China's green development, developing rave-reviewed products such as Anji white tea, Anji bamboo shoots and Anji bamboo furniture while preserving its beautiful environment. It is noted that green home furnishing industry is Anji's pillar industry that accounts for more than half of the County's total industrial output value, and leading bamboo products and furniture enterprises display Anji office chairs, sofas, bamboo handicrafts, bamboo mats and other products during the event.
