"The oranges in this grove taste sweet and fresh. Every year I come here to pick some for family members and friends," said a tourist surnamed Liu from Shanghai urban area.

The orange orchard in Dengta village plants a total of 70 acres of tangerine in three varieties. The early-maturing variety comes into season in mid-September, while the late one comes into maturity around New Year's Day.
