If we judge which city in Henan has a good location from a historical perspective, it is difficult to give an answer, because different times and different environments have created different location advantages, but if we look at today's society, the answer given by 1954 is still very applicable.
Before 1954, it is possible that Luoyang Kaifeng occupied an excellent geographical position and the social, economic and cultural relations between the two cities. Kaifeng was then the provincial capital, the political and cultural center of Henan, and Luoyang was the first batch of industrial bases in China, which was also the economic and industrial center. At that time, both cities were inferior to them.
However, in 1954, the Henan Provincial Party Committee decided to move the capital to the provincial capital and give up Kaifeng. However, it did not choose Luoyang, but chose Zhengzhou, which was unremarkable at that time. There is a simple reason. Zhengzhou has a railway, which can bring stronger transportation capacity, so water transportation is given to the train, and the provincial capital has moved to Zheng Xiao, which has more development prospects.
The principle of smooth roads and smooth economy still applies today. Now we look at the map of Henan, and it is not difficult to find that Zhengzhou still occupies excellent geographical advantages and transportation advantages. Therefore, from the perspective of urban location alone, Zhengzhou is still the first in the province, but from the perspective of human settlements, Jiyuan, Nanyang, Zhumadian and Xinyang may have more advantages. In short, Henan is the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the location of each city has unique advantages.
To say that the geographical location is good, I think it is Jiaozuo City. Why? First, the mountains (Taihang Mountain) and the water (Yellow River) are excellent places for Yijing Feng Shui. Therefore, a founding emperor of Sui Dynasty was born and a Han Xian emperor was buried. Second, the soil is fertile. Jiaozuo is scoured by the Yellow River and Qinhe River all the year round, and the soil is fertile. What kind of plants are planted are of high yield. As the saying goes, you don't panic when you have food in your hand. Third, there are fewer natural and man-made disasters. As we all know, Henan has suffered many disasters in history, such as the flood in Huanghuai, and the south bank of the Yellow River is often a Zeguo. Jiaozuo is high in the north and low in the south. No matter how big the flood is, it is discharged into the Yellow River and the Qinhe River. Since historical records, there has been basically no flood. From the perspective of modern history, Jiaozuo was not affected by military disasters in every big battle, and there were few large-scale disasters. The fourth product is rich, Jiaozuo Plain.
There are abundant high-quality anthracite, and there are iron, aluminum, vanadium, clay and other minerals in the mountainous area. Climate, Jiaozuo is not too hot in summer, not too cold in winter, and there is a lot of rainfall. It can be said that the weather has been good for many years. So Jiaozuo is a treasure trove of geomantic omen.
First of all, Henan Province is the most populous province in China, and it is also a major agricultural production province.
So which city in Henan has the best geographical location?
I have settled in Luoyang. Now I think our historical geographical location Luoyang, as the ancient capital of the 13th Dynasty, has a rich history. Luoyang has a history of 5000 years of civilization, 4000 years of urban construction and 1500 years of capital construction. It is the earliest and longest city in the history of China, and 105 emperors gave directions here. Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, he was buried in Beijiang (Luoyang). The ancients described Luoyang: there is no place in the world, and there is no harmony within the four seas. Luoyang is also one of the "four holy cities" in the world. The territory is rich in scenic spots, including Longmen Mountain, Masizhong, Jingu Chun Qing, Mangshan Night Scene, Tianjin Xiaoyue, Luopu Autumn Wind, Pingquan Chaoyou and Tongtuo Muyu, which are the "Eight Scenes" of Luoyang. 1954 when new China implemented the first five-year plan, Luoyang No.1 tractor factory, Luoyang bearing factory, Luoyang copper processing factory and Luoyang mining machinery factory were the "eldest sons of China industry". Luoyang Glass Factory was a household name in China at that time. But up to now, because it is not the capital of Henan Province, it has moved and moved.
Zhengzhou is probably the best place in Henan Province now.
At that time, no one would have thought that "Zheng County" would become the capital of Henan Province, so Zhengzhou is located on the north-south artery of our country, relying on the rapid economic development of Zhengzhou on the Beijing-Han Railway (Beijing-Guangzhou Railway). The railway line runs through the north and south, which is the most convenient place in Henan.
From the perspective of feng shui, it is better to have mountains in the south and water in the north.
Eight hundred miles in the north of Henan lies in the south, and the Yellow River in Wan Li divides, rolling eastward. The area between Taihang Mountain and Yellow River is definitely a treasure in Henan. So from this point of view, from west to east, Jiyuan, Jiaozuo and Xinxiang are all in good positions.
Luoyang and Nanyang are small basins, commonly known as "cornucopia", with mountains and water, especially the Nanyang basin, which leads directly to Xiangyang, Hubei and other places in the southwest. Vast territory, surrounded by mountains and rivers, excellent geographical location.
Xinyang is located on the south side of the Huaihe River in Qinling Mountains, and belongs to the southern region in terms of topography and climate. The south side is close to Dabie Mountain, which is also surrounded by mountains and waters. As far as Henan is concerned, the overall environment is the wettest and closest to the southern region, but it is far from other regions in the province.
Xuchang and Luohe are actually in the middle. Puyang, Shangqiu and Zhoukou are adjacent to Shandong, Anhui and northern Jiangsu in the east. The position is relatively east.
In fact, Zhengzhou can become the provincial capital by railway. Longhai Line and Beijing-Guangzhou Line cross in Zhengzhou. Why Zhengzhou? Western Henan is a mid-level area (belonging to the remnants of Funiu Mountain in Qinling Mountains), and Taihang Mountain is on the north. In order to reduce the project, the railway went from east to west in Luoyang Basin, passing through the east side of Taihang Mountain in Anyang-Hebi-Xinxiang-Zhengzhou, and the two lines crossed in Zhengzhou, so the provincial capital Zhengzhou was established.
Speaking of Zhengzhou, the location is actually a little north of the province. It is 0/00 km from Zhengzhou to Taihang Mountain in Jiaozuo, but it is nearly 500 km to Xinxian County at the southernmost tip of Xinyang, 500 km to Xixia in the westernmost part of Nanyang and Lushi in Sanmenxia, 400 km to Lingbao in the western part of Sanmenxia and 300 km to Taiqian County in the easternmost part of Puyang.
At present, Zhengzhou's radiation to the whole province mainly depends on convenient transportation. With the increasing popularity of high-speed rail, light rail and even airplanes in the future, Zhengzhou's traffic advantage will gradually weaken.
At present, China is at the peak of urbanization, and the "siphon" effect of big cities is becoming more and more obvious. In the future, the functions of county-level cities will become weaker and weaker, and only super metropolises and prefecture-level cities will be retained.
However, with the popularity of the Internet and self-media, the process and form of social development have changed, and people in the future can choose more independently. At that time, perhaps a comfortable natural environment was their first consideration. For example, many smart people in Beijing and Shanghai have sold their houses and gone to areas with more comfortable natural environment to support the elderly.
And the land in Henan, which is surrounded by mountains and waters, will be a real treasure then!
Welcome everyone to visit, visit, invest and settle in my hometown Luohe.
There is no doubt that Zhengzhou is the best city in Henan Province at this time.
You know, Zhengzhou is the capital of Henan Province, an important central city in Central China, a mega-city, an important comprehensive transportation hub and a trade and logistics center.
Zhengzhou, located in the remnant vein of East Qinling, is the transition zone of the second and third grade landform steps in China.
In history, Zhengzhou once belonged to Luoyang, Nanyang and Kaifeng.
Zhengzhou has always been called "a city pulled by trains". When Sheng Xuanhuai, a court minister in the late Qing Dynasty, surveyed the Luhan Railway, Zhengzhou Station was turned into a first-class railway station, which directly affected the development process of modern Zhengzhou.
With the intersection of Longhai Railway and Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Zhengzhou has always maintained its position as a national railway transportation hub, and Zhengzhou is known as the heart of China Railway.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province, can also be regarded as an excellent geographical location.
Up to now, Zhengzhou's "meter" shaped high-speed rail network has been formed, including Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed rail, Zhengxi high-speed rail, Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed rail, Zhenghe high-speed rail, Ji Zheng high-speed rail and Zhengzhou-Taiyuan high-speed rail. Zhengzhou North Station, the largest train marshalling station in Asia, and Putian West Station, the largest LTL freight transfer station in China.
First of all, from the geographical location of Luohe, although the area of Luohe is relatively small, it is located in the middle of Henan Province and is also a famous food city in the Central Plains. There are many plains in the territory, and it is easy to reach all directions.
From the traffic advantages of Luohe, firstly, Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Luofu Railway and Mengbao Railway pass through here; Second, Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway and Luoning Expressway transit Luohe; The third is the Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed railway and the planned Luoning high-speed railway; Fourth, the planned Shahe shipping during the 13th Five-Year Plan period leads to Zhoukou and other places. Therefore, although Luohe is small, it is also an important transportation hub city, and there are many transfers from surrounding cities to Luohe.
In addition to Luohe, nearby Xuchang is also a city with a very good geographical position. There will also be five high-speed railway station in China, with a vast territory and easier access to the surrounding areas. With its powerful transportation network, Zhengzhou is also a city with a very good geographical position and the most convenient place for transportation in Henan.
In short, I hope that the traffic between cities in Henan will be more convenient in the future. Because I live in Luohe, I still think Luohe has the best geographical location. Welcome to leave your opinion in the comments section.
There is no difference between the best and the worst. You can build it into his paradise in a bad and generous way, and you can extend in all directions in inconvenient places. Just like Pingdingshan ranked the top three in the province more than 20 years ago, now, the railway is assigned to Wuhan for management, but the Wuhan Railway Bureau has invested money in Hubei Province. Pingdingshan city is nobody's business, and Zhengzhou Railway Bureau has the right to build it, so Pingdingshan city has become an outcast. High-speed rail has been extending in all directions in other places for a long time. There is no high-speed rail in Pingdingshan, so Zhengzhou Railway will build a Zhengzhou-Wanzhou Railway, which will bypass Baofeng County when passing through Pingdingshan and will not enter the urban area of Pingdingshan. The reason is that if this railway passes through Pingdingshan, it will be under Wuhan's control, so there is no high-speed rail in Pingdingshan, and there are no Jiaxian, Baofeng and Lushan counties now, so the transportation is convenient. Henan Province also gave up its investment in Pingdingshan City. In a short period of ten years, Pingdingshan was the earliest special economic zone in China. Known as "Little Hong Kong", it has now become a place with no one to love, inconvenient transportation, backward economy, poor environment and extremely high prices. However, Xuchang's investment in recent years has really paid off, with rapid economic development and good road traffic construction. Just like Zhengzhou a few decades ago, no one can say it well, and it is not as good as Kaifeng and Luoyang. However, after the provincial capital moved to Zhengzhou, the economic investment was huge and it developed vigorously. Always the first place. Now Zhengzhou can compete with other cities in the province, so it can become a pearl in poor places. A good place is a place where the government attaches importance to, develops and invests.
I don't want to say more. I just want to ask, where did the ancestor of mankind start the great project of making people? Why did Nu Wa create the sky in Zhou Xi? Why is it cool when the wind blows in the northeast and north? Why did human ancestors choose Zhoukou to make human beings? I hope people from all walks of life can participate in the discussion and recommendation. Answer: Don't use offensive language. Explanation and answer of civilized terms:
I think there are two completely different answers to this question. The best city in Henan Province, if Zhengzhou is the current development trend, Luoyang is the only one. From a historical perspective, Luoyang is not only the best city in Henan, but also the best city in China.
First of all, Zhengzhou is located in the Central Plains. /kloc-became the capital of Henan province in 0/954, and rapidly developed into the political, economic and cultural center of Henan province. The core of the Central Plains urban agglomeration and the central city supported by the state. The traffic location is unique, based on the Central Plains, radiating the whole country. It is one of the most important transportation hubs in China. It is the first city in China to form an "M"-shaped high-speed railway, which can go directly to any provincial capital city in China (except Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), and its highway, railway, aviation and logistics transportation capacities are among the best in China. Zhengzhou's important position is difficult to be surpassed in a short time.
Secondly, from a historical perspective, Luoyang is the best place in Henan Province and even the whole country. Luoyang has a history of 5,000 years of civilization, 4,000 years of city building and 1500 years of capital building. It is the earliest and longest city in the history of China, where 105 emperors once gave directions. Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, he was buried in Beijiang (Luoyang). After Zhou Wuwang pacified the world, he "moved the house into China within a week". So the earliest name of China originated from Luoyang. Sima Qian's "Historical Records" records that "three generations of previous lives were all between Heluo". The ancients described Luoyang: there is no place in the world, and there is no harmony within the four seas. Luoyang is the birthplace of Hutuluo, the earliest document in China. China's Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, rationalism and metaphysics all originated or developed here, and Luoyang is the city with the best geomantic omen. It is also the only capital of Empress Wu Zetian in the history of China, and the only city awarded the title of "God Capital" in the history of China. The Silk Road in the Eastern Han Dynasty (East Luoyang and West Rome) and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in the Sui and Tang Dynasties meet here. Three of the four great inventions were born in Luoyang. Sima Guang completed China's first chronological general history Zi Tongzhi Jian in Luoyang. Luoyang is one of the first national historical and cultural cities approved by the State Council and one of the four holy cities in the world. Peony flowers bloom all over the world from Luoyang, and have the reputation of "Millennium Imperial Capital, Peony Flower City". Luoyang's tourism resources should not be underestimated. Longmen Grottoes, Baima Temple, Guanlin, Chongdugou, Jiguan Cave, Baiyun Mountain and Laojun Mountain still attract a large number of tourists from home and abroad every year.
To sum up, ancient and modern Henan, the best geographical location, Luoyang history, shopping mall Zhengzhou.
This is my humble opinion. If there are any shortcomings, friends are welcome to correct me.
