China Youth Daily Client News (China Youth Daily/China Youth Network reporter Jiao Minlong) "I'm retired now, so I'm trying things out first and exploring ways to spend my retirement years ahead of the younger generation." Yang Hongming, a 72-year-old RV "enthusiast", brought his wife Yu Qunfang to the RV campsite in Xinhe Village, Chenjin Township, Longde County, Guyuan City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region for the second time to escape the summer heat. It has been more than 40 days.

Last year, the couple bought an RV and traveled to some places with beautiful natural scenery. From the RV friends WeChat group, they learned that there was an RV camp in Longde County that could "avoid the heat", and they lived in this camp for nearly two months. Yang Hongming said that in Chengdu, it was so hot in the midsummer that it felt like being "baked in the bottom of a pot"; Longde is close to Liupan Mountain and has a pleasant climate, making it a good place to escape the heat and relax, so "I want to come again after coming here". After traveling from the southwest to the northwest for more than 40 days to escape the heat, Yu Qunfang is not in a hurry to go home. The RV camp has complete facilities, including outdoor camping areas, leisure and entertainment areas, water and power supply facilities, sewage and waste treatment facilities, and material supply stores. She also met a new RV friend family from Chongqing in the RV camp. In the camp, they cooked Sichuan and Chongqing dishes together, drank tea and talked about the gate array after dinner, "I feel very comfortable with this kind of life. My son works in Chengdu and supports us old couple to go out more often." Yu Qunfang said. Guyuan City, where the couple has been traveling for two consecutive years, is located in the southern mountainous area of ​​Ningxia, close to Liupan Mountain. The forest coverage rate in the city is 14.4%, ranking first in Ningxia. In recent years, Guyuan City has focused on the development of eco-tourism with "green mountains and clear waters, fresh air and cool climate", and launched the "18 degrees Celsius summer" cultural tourism brand to create a summer tourism destination.
