Yanqing district in northwest Beijing announced five themed summer travel routes on May 19, China’s National Tourism Day. Yanqing is the host of the ongoing Beijing International Horticultural Expo, so tourists are invited to visit the expo, among other sights, to take in the array of flora unique to Yanqing.

The five routes include two-day tours of the ancient town, mountain and river scenery, the Great Wall, the Grand Nature Gallery and revolutionary relics, plus a sixth tour, a three-day "escape the summer heat" route.

A rural cuisine festival was also held in Yanqing on May 19, where 38 dishes unique to the area were offered by locals, from a colorful flower banquet to a stone pot feast and steamed banquet.
