PANZHIHUA, China, Nov. 23, 2023 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

While most of China has entered early winter by November, with some regions

already blanketed in snow, Panzhihua City in Sichuan Province is a whole

different story. The colorful urban scenery and temperate weather are two signs

indicating that the most comfortable health preservation season in this city

has arrived.

On November 16th, the "Warm City of Flowers" Health Preservation Season 2023

Press Conference hosted by Panzhihua Municipal People's Government announced

the beginning of this year's health preservation season. Other than traditional

activities like sunbathing and savoring fresh fruits, this year's campaign also

features a wide range of events such as sports competitions, healthy exercises

and cultural tourism.

Three main events including the National Final of the 18th League of Legends

City Heroes Championship, the 2023 National Hiking Trail Premier League Final,

and the 2nd Rural Culture and Art Festival of Sichuan Province are scheduled to

take place in Panzhihua.

From late November to next March, Panzhihua will also host a number of

activities in different fields such as motorcycle tour, cyberpunk rap, cosplay

show and e-sports week, the 14th Panzhihua Happy Sunshine Festival and

badminton invitational, with the hope that visitors can immerse themselves in

the enthusiasm and charm of Panzhihua through a diverse variety of experiences.

Thereafter, the city will unveil a series of tourist-friendly policies and

offer a full spectrum of thoughtful services to visitors, so as to create a

high-quality travel experience.

Panzhihua is named after a flower ("hua") and it is the only city with its

entire region listed on the list of "Climate Livable Cities in China". In

recent years, this winter-free city has capitalized on its advantages such as

sufficient sunshine resources, comfortable weather conditions and a picturesque

environment in successfully branding itself as a sunny destination for health

preservation, rising as a top winter escape and travel destination among both

Chinese and overseas visitors.

Other than the pleasant climate, the cuisine of Panzhihua is also quite a

calling card. Take for example the Yanbian mutton rice noodles, known among

Chinese netizens as the "top must-try breakfast" and a stomach-warming delicacy

particularly suited to winter. The city is also a major producer of fruits from

mango and loquat to pomegranate, as well as early-spring vegetables, among

which Panzhihua mangoes are usually available between June and December each

year, allowing people to taste the delicious "Tropical Fruit King" even during

the winter.
