China's rural revitalization strategy is helping revamp the countryside.

BEIJING, Sept. 6, 2019 (Xinhua) -- Rural revitalization strategy was first put forward during the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2017 and repeatedly stressed by the Chinese leadership since then.

The strategy aims at achieving the basic modernization of agriculture and rural areas by 2035, and the grand goal of a strong agricultural industry, beautiful countryside and well-off farmers by 2050.

The strategy's overall goal is to build rural areas with thriving businesses, pleasant living environments, social etiquette and civility, effective governance, and prosperity.

Under such circumstances, the rural areas in China are developing fast, with agriculture developing fast, rural tourism booming and migrant workers returning home from coastal areas for entrepreneurship.
