Take a look at Xincheng Ximen Village in Turpan, China's Xinjiang region. Neat lanes, colorful murals and heritage corridors make it a popular photo spot. More than 70 percent of its farmland is planted with grapes. The village has built a complete industrial chain spanning processing plants and e-commerce livestreaming, creating greater value from its grapes. Farm-tourism integration brings locals more job opportunities, and many villagers run their own businesses. New ideas are helping this village blossom with shared prosperity and unity.
