Jinxi County is the best place to visit ancient villages in Jiangxi Province. 
There are more than 100 well-preserved traditional ancient villages with over 
11,000 buildings built in the Ming and the Qing dynasty in the county, which 
make it "a museum of ancient villages with no walls". In recent years, Jinxi

tourism" by making an overall plan to boost the integration and development of 
diversified tourism. We have seen a momentum of tourism boom across the county 
where "everywhere is the landscape for travel and everyone can participate and 
benefit", driving the cross-border integration and vigorous development of 
various industries.

Here each village is given a unique character and more villages are enjoying a 
promising future. In recent years, Jinxi County has been trying to explore 
cultural connotation behind each village based on their own situation and 
giving those villages a new look with new technologies and western elements.

Nowadays, the brand of "Jinxi Ancient Village" has been gradually established 
and known by the public. As a cultural characteristic label, it has attracted 
many people to come. "If you have visited Jinxi, then you will find other 
villages unworthy of visiting." This is the best appraisal from foreign 
tourists that have visited Jinxi and also the strongest proof of  cultural 
confidence in local ancient villages.

It is worth mentioning that Jinxi local government has been actively exploring 
the mechanism of transforming the value of ecological products into reality, 
and have been taking the lead in launching the first "ancient village financial 
loan" in the country, mortgaging the operation rights of ancient buildings to 
banks. These measures have successfully activated a number of century-old 
"dormant assets" and effectively helped revitalizing local rural economy.
