Economy
Nanniwan is a major site for red tourism in China, with approximately 210,000 tourists visiting the town on May Day, 2021, earning the town 12 million renminbi in tourism revenue.[3] However, Nanniwan remains a rural town with relatively low levels of income.[3] A 2015 government report found that 1,041 people in Nanniwan lived in poverty.[3] In an effort to combat the town's low economic development, and improve its touristic development, the town has worked with Yan'an's regional government to shut down oil wells in the town, and restore wetlands and rice paddies.[3] The town's government has also bought farmland from many farmers in the town, and converted it to tourist facilities and parks.[3]
