At the Hengbei village in Dafeng, foreign visitors tasted organic fruits and learned that various Chinese leaders visited the village in the past. The pear blossoms in the orchards attracted visitors' particular attention, leading them into taking out their cameras for a wave of beautiful photos one after another.

The trip in Dafeng ended at the Dafeng National Level Elk Nature Reserve where foreigners enthusiastically searched for the chance to see elks in their original habitat. Dozens of elks, having post-lunch relaxation and cooling off in the wetland did not disappoint them.

"I am so happy! The Holland Sea of Flowers and the elk nature reserve impressed me a lot. If there are juniors coming here next year, I may well be a tour guide to show them around!" said Jayani Priyangika, a Sri Lankan student in Nanjing Xiaozhuang College.

"Foreigner's view of Jiangsu" that aims to let foreigners get to know more about the culture, natural beauty and socio-economic development of different parts of Jiangsu is held every year during spring time since 2012.
