The physically strong Wen Jun has always had a penchant for off-road vehicles, and he currently has half a dozen of various types of off-road vehicles in his possession, including a quasi-vintage car from 1982.
"Basically, we don't need to fix it up, but the riverbank is a very ideal place for off-road racing." Wen Jun told reporters, pointing to a gravel beach along the Ili River.
In addition to opening up an off-road racing track, Wen Jun also wants to provide a creative base for painters from all over the world in his Riverside Sightseeing Park. 2011, he invited a famous painter from the Xinjiang Painting Academy to offer him a free place to entrust the painter with inviting nationally renowned painters to come to the Yili River to pick up winds and create artwork, and even to open a personal art gallery.
