Faku develops general aviation sector

Shijianfang town in Faku county, Shenyang, is constructing a national base for the general aviation industry.

Near Caihu Lake, Liaoning province, the base will have 117 square kilometers of commercial areas, navigational businesses and cultural public service areas, as well as convention and exhibition areas for the general aviation industry.

An eco-agricultural industrial park is also under construction on Caihu Lake’s south bank, where visitors will be able to enjoy blooming sunflowers, lotuses and other flowers, as well as plant their own vegetables, or take to the water for some fishing, or the skies for aerial sightseeing.

The base and park construction project is part of a move to revitalize rural areas, promoting tourism and varied kinds of agriculture, from urban and modern to creative, ecological and manor farming approaches.
