Since then, it has been held every April when the pear blossoms are in full bloom. It has been held for 17 times now. Yangxin is a famous "hometown of Chinese pears". Geographical and climatic characteristics such as soil texture, hours of sunshine, and days without frost provide good natural conditions for the production of Yangxin pears. In addition, the people of Yangxin have accumulated many years of planting experience, making Yangxin pears have the characteristics of golden color, rich fragrance, thin skin and rich flesh, crisp and tender, moderate sweetness and sourness, and good storage. Yangxin pears have a long history. According to records, it began in the early Tang Dynasty and turned to garden production in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Yangxin Yali has made great progress.
