　　With an area of 1.2 square kilometers, the Tengtou Village is located in Xiaowangmiao Street, Fenghua District, Ningbo. Over the years, Tengtou has achieved remarkable results in pursuing a development path that features ecological development and affluent life. It has successively won awards such as the "Global 500 Roll of Honour for Environmental Achievement" and the "World's Top Ten Harmonious Villages" and was selected as the world's only village representative for the best practice area of Shanghai World Expo 2010.

　　滕頭村位于奉化區(qū)蕭王廟街道，區(qū)域面積1.2平方公里。多年來，滕頭村堅持走生態(tài)發(fā)展、生活富裕的發(fā)展路子，取得了顯著成效，相繼榮膺全球生態(tài)500佳、世界十佳和諧鄉(xiāng)村等殊榮，并作為全球唯一的鄉(xiāng)村入選上海世博會城市最佳實踐區(qū)。

　　Though picturesque and prosperous today, Tengtou had its underprivileged and underdeveloped days. Since the early 1960s, a series of initiatives have been taken by the villagers, such as land reclamation, village renovation, enterprises, and eco-tourism, resulting in remarkable economic returns that helped them to achieve the "leap forward" from breaking free from poverty, living a well-off lifestyle, and becoming affluent.

　　如今優(yōu)美如畫、富裕繁榮的滕頭村，曾經(jīng)卻是一個貧困落后的小村子。20世紀60年代初期，滕頭村實施造田工程、改造舊村、興辦企業(yè)、發(fā)展生態(tài)旅游，取得了良好的經(jīng)濟效益，村民的物質(zhì)生活實現(xiàn)了由貧困到小康再到富裕的跨越。

　　Consisting of various function zones, the Tengtou Eco-tourism Area attracts many tourists. For example, one may find Jiangnan-style (southern of the Yangtze River) gardens, Penjing gardens, green promenade, and other scenic spots in the ecotourism zone; plant tissue cultivation centers, flower and seedling parks, seasonal melon and fruit picking area, among others, in the agricultural experience zone; all together creating an unforgettable rural experience for the tourists.

　　滕頭生態(tài)旅游區(qū)吸引了無數(shù)游客到訪，景區(qū)以江南風情園、盆景園、綠色長廊等景點組成生態(tài)旅游；以植物組培觀光園、花卉苗木觀賞區(qū)、時令瓜果采摘等組成別開生面的農(nóng)俗風情游樂。
