Xiaoguan town in Weihai's Wendeng district will host a Chinese Rose Cultural Festival on June 13-14 to attract more tourists and promote its rural sightseeing sites.

Various events will take place during the festival, including flower shows, cultural performances, a qipao fashion show and a photo contest.

The Donglangnuan village in the town has planted more than 20 varieties of roses in a 133,333-square-meter area. The roses are now in full bloom.

Local officials said that flower planting has brought more visitors to the village and helped developed related industries, in turn increasing the incomes of local villagers.
