Editor's Note:
The Xuanhua traditional vineyards of North China have over a 1,300-year history of culture and cultivation. Mainly distributed in Guanhou, Penyao and Dabei villages of Xuanhua district, Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, the vineyards use distinct funnel-shaped trellises that protect the grapes from frost. They were listed as Urban Agricultural Heritage in 2013 by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, and are a source of tourism for the area. Photos: VCG
