Liu Rangxi, founder of "Beautiful Xinxiang Village", a platform dedicated to revitalizing rural idle farmhouses, believes that at present, with the upgrading of tourism consumption, people's demand for personalized and characteristic accommodation is increasing. However, there are many idle rural housing resources in rural areas. Through scientific design, decoration and transformation, a large number of effective supplies can be formed, benefiting both the supply and demand sides of the market. Changing farmhouses into homestays not only helps farmers to explore and improve the value of idle farmhouses, but also provides financial support for farmers who have no funds to renovate their houses. "If we can revitalize a large number of idle rural resources, the rural areas full of pastoral poetry will become the destination people yearn for."
According to Dai Bin, Dean of china tourism academy, only by integrating with the village where the hotel is located and striving to improve the local living standards and cultural atmosphere can there be better sustainable development.
The rural idle houses targeted by beautiful Xinxiang Village are not small in scale. The data shows that the total residential land in China is about 270 million mu, and the vacant land is about 65,438+140,000 mu, accounting for almost 40% of all residential land. According to incomplete statistics, there are currently thousands of farmhouses and homestays rented through the "Beautiful Xinxiang Village" platform.
