Feng County

Feng County is an administrative division in Xuzhou located in northwestern Jiangsu province, bordering Shandong and Anhui. The area is administered from Fengcheng Town and connected by expressways and railway lines that serve fourteen townships.

The area originated during the Han Dynasty as the town of Fengyi under Pei County before becoming an independent administrative region. This transformation marked its development from a subordinate district into a separate administrative unit.

The area is known for its agricultural traditions, particularly the cultivation of Fuji apples, pears, yams, and burdock across its farmland. You can see orchards and fields throughout the landscape that shape daily rural life.

The area is best explored by public transportation, as rail lines and bus services connect all major towns. The best time to visit is during harvest season, when rural areas show their active agricultural character.

The area is a major center for Fuji apple cultivation, and the farmers' high degree of specialization in this crop is visible across the extensive orchards. This focus on a single crop has made the region an important supply zone for northern markets.
