conduct separate harnessing for ecological protection in the lower reaches of the Yellow River 

and build a recreational cultural tourism system along the Yellow River 

On June 7, when investigating the planning of the Yellow River Beach Park, Xu Liyi, member of the Standing Committee of the CPC Henan Provincial Committee and secretary of the CPC Zhengzhou Municipal Committee, stressed that the government should thoroughly implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important speech at the Symposium on Ecological Protection and High-quality Development in the Yellow River Basin, adhere to the new development concept and the people-centered development thought, ensure the ecological protection in the lower reaches of the Yellow River around separate harnessing of the three beaches, and build a recreational cultural tourism system along the Yellow River centered on the people, thus promoting the high-standard protection of the ecosystem in the Zhengzhou section of the Yellow River, the high-level inheritance and display of the Yellow River culture, and the high-quality transformation and development of industries along the Yellow River.

Xu Liyi visited the project site in Dahe Village National Archaeological Park and listened to the briefing on project planning and construction. He said that the project should fit into the surrounding areas, and the architectural form should be coordinated with the city landscape. It is necessary to further promote the integration of the project with the North Longhu Area, thus enhancing the cultural quality and endogenous vitality for regional development. It is also necessary to adhere to high-quality construction, push forward all tasks in strict accordance with the schedule, and build the park into a landmark cultural project.

In Niuzhuang Village, Huiji District, Xu Liyi carefully inspected the protection of villages along the Yellow River in Xingze Ancient City. He pointed out that the villages along the Yellow River should be reasonably preserved mainly through renovation, with the ecological environment optimized. The existing village infrastructure should be fully utilized to develop high-level recreational sightseeing and vacation tourism formats, so as to create a beautiful suburban leisure space for people.

At the subsequent special meeting, Xu Liyi listened carefully to the briefing on the planning of the Yellow River Beach Park. He stressed that the Yellow River Beach Park is an ecological protection demonstration site for Zhengzhou to build a core demonstration area for ecological protection and high-quality development in the Yellow River Basin. The government should adhere to the separate harnessing of shallow, middle and high beaches, highlight the natural characteristics of the Yellow River Beach, implement high-standard ecological restoration, advance green development, improve cultural and tourism supporting facilities, and explore ways and set an example for ecological protection and high-quality development in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. It is required to further deepen the planning and design scheme, scientifically handle the relationship between vehicle traffic, slow traffic and pedestrian systems and optimize the traffic organization in a people-centered way, thus fully meeting people's needs on the basis of environmental protection. It is necessary to change the thinking, concept and methods of agricultural production and management, adhere to professional and corporate-based operations, and develop high-quality sightseeing and recreational agriculture. Efforts should be made to further improve and develop the construction management system, specify the executor of the project and ensure fund balancing, persisting in the combination of construction and management and the close integration of engineering construction measures and agricultural operation mode adjustments. The construction of the project should be promoted step by step, with priority given to ecological restoration and the vehicle traffic system. The government should speed up efforts to complete the project and put it into use as early as possible, so as to provide a high-quality "large garden" for people seeking recreation and entertainment, and drive the ecological protection and high-quality development along the Yellow River.

Niu Weiguo, Wu Fumin and Chen Hongwei participated in the investigation.
