? Huili County is located in the southwest of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, with beautiful mountains and abundant resources. The area is rich in green skinned and soft seeded pomegranates, known as the "hometown of pomegranates" in China.

Pomegranate has a long history of cultivation. The Annals of Huili Prefecture once recorded: "The name of pomegranate is Riruoluo, Ridanruo, Jinpapao, Tianjiang, Zhushi, Zhuying, and Jinying. There are two types: sweet and sour, commonly known as pomegranate. During the Qing Dynasty, Governor Ye Shudong went to Huili to take up his post. As soon as he stepped into Huili's territory, he was overwhelmed by pomegranate flowers that were as red as Danxia. He spontaneously wrote a poem: "Riding on the moon in the sky over Guanshan Mountain, the whole family and children are surrounded by clouds, and officials are afraid to see their master in front of them. Ten thousand pomegranate flowers shine on you." Miyi's inspector Lu Wei went to Huili and also left a line of poetry: "The fragrance is like Luo Yun, like ink, pomegranate is like fire willow smoke, watching mountain people enter Wang Wei's paintings, drinking wine and poetry into Li Bai's poems."

Huili, the birthplace of pomegranate, is located in the northeastern part of the Hengduan Mountains in southwest China, on the southeastern edge of the Qinghai Tibet Plateau. The climate in the region belongs to the semi humid Climate zone, with more sunshine hours and vigorous evaporation; Concentrated rainfall and distinct dry and wet seasons.
