The 3D murals in Dianzizhang village feature animals, fairies and historical-themed paintings. They have been welcomed greatly by local residents, especially children.

With a total population of 355, Dianzizhang village has 32 people who are now living in poverty.

Since 2016, the local tourism authority has been putting efforts into developing the village into a rural tourism destination in a bid to lift the villagers out of poverty.
