Xuwu Community, named for the abundance of Xuwu trees in its early years, begins to bloom with white flowers in mid-November, and by mid-January, red fruits start to mature. However, due to overharvesting, these trees have nearly disappeared. Like many other agricultural villages, the community also faces the challenge of an aging population. In recent years, through community revitalization efforts, residents have worked together to cultivate and plant nearly a hundred Xuwu trees, restoring the charm of the Xuwu landscape from the past. There have also been numerous projects to rejuvenate living spaces, from improving accessibility to designing 13 story iron flower windows within the community, with the hope of increasing residents' sense of belonging. Surprisingly for the renovation team, the retro iron flower windows themed around village life, due to their unique designs and the stories behind them, have attracted many visitors to the community, who wander through the alleys like treasure hunters, discovering one warm and ordinary story after another through each iron flower window.

In recent years, through community revitalization, residents have come together to nurture seedlings and plant nearly a hundred Xunwu trees, recreating the charm of the early days. Numerous projects have also been undertaken to redesign living spaces, from improving accessibility to designing 13 story iron flower windows within the community, aiming to increase residents' sense of identity with the place. Unexpectedly, the retro iron flower windows, themed around the villagers' lives and featuring unique patterns and stories, have attracted many tourists to the community, who wander through the alleys like a treasure hunt, discovering ordinary yet heartwarming tales through each iron flower window.
