Tianjin Limutai Tourism Co., Ltd. is actively studying and implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. In accordance with the guiding principles outlined by the Central Publicity Team during its presentation in Tianjin on November 5, the Limutai Company’s Party branch convened a general meeting of all party members on the afternoon of November 6 to further study and implement the spirit of the 19th National Congress. At the meeting, the branch secretary led all party members in studying and comprehending the spirit of the 19th National Congress, interpreting the profound implications of the report. Additionally, the meeting conveyed the key messages from Comrade Li Hongzhong, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, delivered at the Tianjin Municipal Leaders’ Conference, as well as those from Comrade Yu Lijun, Secretary of the District Party Committee, presented at the district-wide conference for Party members and cadres. The meeting emphasized that all party members should regard studying and implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress as the top political priority for the present and the foreseeable future. They are urged to earnestly learn, publicize, and put into practice the spirit of the Congress, foster a positive learning environment, and ensure that the spirit reaches every employee. First, it is essential to lead by example. Leading cadres must take the initiative and set an exemplary standard in studying and implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress, ensuring that all Party members and cadres internalize this spirit and translate it into concrete actions. Second, we must strengthen education and training. A special study plan on the spirit of the 19th National Congress should be formulated, enabling in-depth study so that Party members and cadres fully appreciate the significance of the Congress, deeply understand and accurately grasp its core essence, and conscientiously apply General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions on mastering the material, thoroughly understanding it, and putting it into practice. Third, we must closely link theoretical study with practical application. The spirit of the 19th National Congress should be integrated with the thematic educational campaign “Uphold the Core, Forge Loyalty, Take Responsibility, and Strengthen Party Branches,” as well as with advancing the company’s key tasks and implementing the “Loyalty Education Program.” We must adhere to the principle of combining theory with practice, applying what we learn to our work, using our work to reinforce learning, and achieving mutual growth between study and application. In this way, we will use Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era to fortify our minds, guide our practices, and drive forward our work.

On Double Ninth Festival, seniors can visit Limutai free of charge—climb high to gaze into the distance, where the red leaves blaze like fire!

2017-10-27

On the Double Ninth Festival, seniors can enjoy free admission to Limutai—climb high and gaze far, where red leaves blaze like fire! On October 28, the day of the “Double Ninth” Festival, visitors aged 60 and above can enter Limutai free of charge by presenting their ID cards (they only need to purchase a discounted round-trip shuttle bus ticket for 10 yuan). As the Double Ninth approaches, it’s the perfect time to climb high and take in the view. What do you see when you ascend? Red leaves dye the world in vibrant hues. Appreciating autumn foliage is especially suited to an elder’s state of mind. From afar, the distant hills stretch into the horizon, while layers of forests seem to have sipped rich, fine wine. Bathed in sunlight, they burst forth in myriad shades of purple, red, and gold, glowing as if aflame. Though these red leaves don’t vie with spring blossoms for splendor, they shine brilliantly in the deep autumn of the Double Ninth, creating a breathtaking spectacle. This poetic imagery—“frost‑touched leaves outshine February flowers”—resonates deeply with the hearts of older folks. Every late autumn, at Limutai, frost paints the leaves crimson; from afar, they look like rolling waves of red, while up close they resemble clusters of mountain blooms. And these red leaves are layered: different tree species display distinct colors. Bright red, pale pink, blood‑red, light yellow, deep yellow… Every snapshot captures a vivid, kaleidoscopic masterpiece. At dawn, strolling slowly through the mountains along quiet wooden boardwalks, you gently awaken this picturesque scene, and all its charm stirs to life in the hazy morning light. When a single red leaf drifts down beside you, you feel that long‑forgotten sense of wonder. Yet such fleeting beauty is always brief—don’t wait until the last leaf has fallen to lament that you missed this year’s red‑leaf season! During the Double Ninth Festival, with red leaves blazing like flames, bring your parents to Limutai to climb high and gaze into the distance. Young and old alike can join together, make a wish, and pray for the health and longevity of our elders—and for happiness and well‑being for all seniors worldwide. This is surely one of the most beautiful scenes we can imagine. Photo credits: Wang Yang, Wu Zhong

The sky is high and the clouds are light, with maple leaves ablaze in red—Limumai offers free admission to enjoy the autumn foliage!

2017-10-13

The sky is high and the clouds are light, with maple leaves turning red—Limei Terrace offers free admission to enjoy the autumn foliage! After the National Day holiday, autumn has fully settled in. At Limei Terrace, the leaves of five-pointed maples, Chinese tallow trees, pagoda trees, Chinese locusts, and walnut trees have gradually turned crimson, creating a breathtaking scene of “mountains ablaze with red and forests dyed in vibrant hues.” To let more visitors experience this unique autumn charm firsthand, the scenic area has specially launched two promotional events: the “Autumn Charm at Limei Terrace” Red Leaf Viewing Season and the “Most Enchanting Double Ninth Festival” offer. On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, the “2017 National Mass Mountain Climbing and Fitness Conference—Tianjin Station” and the third Limei Terrace Mass Mountain Climbing Convention will also be held. Visitors are warmly invited to register and take part. From October 13 to October 31, children measuring between 1.2 and 1.5 meters tall can enter the park free of charge (they only need to purchase a discounted round-trip shuttle ticket for 10 yuan). When three adults visit the scenic area together, one of them enjoys free admission (only requiring a discounted round-trip shuttle ticket priced at 10 yuan). On October 28—the Double Ninth Festival—seniors aged 60 and above can enter the park free of charge by presenting their ID cards (they still need to buy a discounted round-trip shuttle ticket for 10 yuan). At Limei Terrace, where forest coverage reaches an impressive 90%, red leaves are synonymous with autumn. With just one night of autumn winds and a few autumn rains, we can already encounter these brilliant hues. Up and down the mountains, the forests are painted in shades of red, each patch of vivid color gently set against the soft green backdrop—subtle yet striking, beautifully balanced.

A white-clad “beauty” descends from the Li Mutai plateau, dancing gracefully among the trees like a living painting.

2017-10-13

A “beauty” in white robes descends upon Limutai, dancing gracefully among the trees like a living painting. If there’s one activity that can instantly infuse an ordinary person with an ethereal charm, it’s undoubtedly yoga. A group of yogis, clad in pristine white, stretch and unwind freely on the grassy meadows amid the woods, their graceful, otherworldly presence utterly captivating. Just a few days ago, Limutai provided just such a scene—a perfect harmony between humanity and nature, lending even greater splendor to the surrounding landscapes. On September 22nd, the second Tianjin City Mass Fitness Yoga Exhibition, Exchange, and Competition event for 2017 kicked off at the Limutai Scenic Area. With the theme “The Charm of Fitness Yoga, the Beauty of Tourism and Leisure,” this event leveraged Limutai’s unique natural and cultural assets to create a platform for cultural exchange between urban Tianjin and the scenic destination of Limutai, thereby promoting the orderly development of fitness yoga and invigorating nationwide participation in physical fitness activities. Attending the event were Mr. Ma Baoqi, Director of the Tianjin Social Sports Center; Mr. Shi Min, Director of the Sports Department of the Evening News; Mr. Zhao Yougang, Deputy Manager of the Limutai Scenic Area; Mr. Jiang Jinggang, General Manager of Tianjin Xinmei Advertising Company; Mr. Sun Hongwei, General Manager of Tianjin Panshan Ski Resort; Mr. Jia Hongxin, General Manager of the Sports Camp; Mr. Tian Baolin, General Manager of the Tianjin Sanyuan Yikang Cultural and Sports Center; and Ms. Zhang Shuang, a member of the National Fitness Yoga Promotion Committee. The event unfolded in two parts: In the morning, Ms. Zhang Shuang led dozens of yogis in a demonstration of classic fitness yoga postures on the grass—breathing exercises, stretches, and meditative poses that harmonized body and mind, culminating in a breathtaking display of vertical vistas. In the afternoon, a fitness yoga competition unfolded gently amidst the verdant hills and clear waters, as skilled practitioners took turns showcasing their expertise, each performance building toward an exhilarating climax. Between sessions, Ms. Zhang Shuang also guided several yogis into the secluded depths of Limutai’s forests, where they experienced the serene tranquility of forest yoga—an escape from the world, enveloped in stillness and peace. At the venue, participants ranged from seasoned yoga enthusiasts to beginners, spanning middle-aged individuals in their forties and fifties to young adults in their twenties and thirties. Despite their varying ages and levels of experience, under the guidance of their instructor, every participant engaged wholeheartedly in this harmonious journey of body and mind. Participants noted that outdoor yoga offers something truly special: basking in the embrace of nature, listening to birdsong and the hum of insects, breathing deeply in fresh air, and connecting with the vast expanse of sky and earth. With each breath and stretch, both body and spirit sink into a state of calm and serenity—experiences indoor yoga simply cannot match. That day at Limutai, the sun shone brightly yet softly, its rays gentle but not harsh. A cool breeze brushed across cheeks, while above, a crystal-clear blue sky stretched endlessly, framed by rolling green hills and lush trees. Soft, velvety grass spread beneathfoot, and nearby, wildflowers bloomed in profusion. Taking a deep breath, one could catch a faint, delicate fragrance carried on the air. Those practicing yoga on the lawn resembled white lotuses blossoming beneath the azure sky—gentle, supple, and composed, moving to the hauntingly beautiful sounds of ambient music. Stretching, twisting, and breathing, their fluid, graceful movements flowed like clouds drifting across the sky—serene, elegant, and imbued with an indescribable, mysterious beauty. Yoga is inherently connected to all living things. Whether in the mountains or on the grasslands, every deep breath and every yoga pose practiced by these yogis represents a profound communion with nature. With each inhalation and exhalation, they stretch and relax, drawing in fresh, pure air while releasing accumulated toxins. All worries are swept away by the gentle breeze, leaving the heart clear and the body free. Here and now, these yogis shine not with dazzling brilliance, but with quiet, gentle serenity—growing stronger through calmness, and sharpening focus through stillness. We warmly invite everyone who loves yoga and cherishes movement to come to Limutai, where you can stretch your body and soul amidst the mountains and streams, entrust your cares to the grassy fields, and surrender your breath to the refreshing wind—inhaling the vital energy of all creation and savoring nature’s nourishing embrace.

Jizhou Pear Blossom Festival Opens on April 15 Spring has arrived once again. As wild mountain peach blossoms bloom in succession, Jizhou—known as “Jizhou of Mountains and Waters, the Garden of Beijing and Tianjin”—has entered its prime season for flower viewing. Soon, tens of thousands of acres of pear blossoms will ripple across the lofty mountains, transforming the landscape into a sea of flowers. As the pear blossoms reach their peak, the annual “Tianjin Jizhou Pear Orchard Romance Tourism and Culture Festival” is set to kick off. Co-hosted by the Tianjin Municipal Agriculture Commission, the Tianjin Municipal Tourism Bureau, and the Jizhou District People’s Government, this festival has been held eight times so far. Each successful edition has added a unique touch to Jizhou’s spring tourism scene. The Ninth Tianjin Jizhou Pear Orchard Romance Tourism and Culture Festival This year’s ninth edition runs from April 15 through mid-May. In addition to the opening ceremony at the Tuanshanzi Pear Orchard in Xiaying Town—a picturesque rural setting—the event will feature a seven-day themed activity titled “Embrace Jizhou’s Scenery, Join the Grand Tourism Fair,” along with a Jizhou tourism photography exhibition, a special food tasting event called “Explore the Pear Blossom Festival, Enjoy Anli Banquets, Savor Anli Wine,” and cultural performances. Exciting Events at Various Attractions Local scenic spots are also introducing fresh attractions, including the Panshan Spring Outing Festival, the Baxianshan Azalea Festival, the Anping Peach Blossom Plateau Peach Blossom Festival, and the Maxinqiao Blueberry Picking Festival. Visitors can not only soak in the stunning scenery but also experience rich local folk traditions.

Guests can enjoy the breathtaking sight of hundreds of miles of pear blossoms without leaving home, while still participating in the festivities in person. Every Corner of Jizhou Offers Stunning Views With April’s fragrant blooms kicking off the flower-viewing season, Jizhou’s beauty extends beyond mountain peaches and pear blossoms. Spring-flowering plants such as forsythia, wild apricots, and azaleas will soon be in bloom as well. Meanwhile, several roads within Jizhou city will transform into tunnels of crabapple blossoms, adorning the ancient town with vibrant colors. Throughout the tourism and culture festival, promotional campaigns promoting civilized tourism—such as “No Litter on the Ground” and “I Am a Practitioner of Civilized Tourism”—will run continuously, encouraging courteous behavior and making civility and mutual respect the most beautiful aspect of the festival.
