"We started a small farm, a little workshop and a mini market based on the destination's conditions," says Shuanglonggou's deputy general manager Wei Zhongping.

The mini market hosts distinctive eateries run by locals.

Shuanglonggou has also restored nearly 100 original stilted wooden buildings in recent years and encouraged local people living in poverty to work and live in the scenic spot.
