1 Qujing, the throat of Yunnan, still has great future development prospects. 2 Honghe, Talk about Yunnan Food. Coming from Honghe Prefecture, the scenery, famous ethnic groups, and culture are all very attractive. Personally, I like Honghe Prefecture, Maitreya, Jianshui, Gejiu, Mengzi, Hekou, and Yuanyang. 3 Yuxi. A city that is slowly dying. A lot of immigrants have left. The growth rate in recent years is lower than the Yunnan average. Yuxi belongs to central Yunnan. The city is rich in water resources. The one that can offer it is Hongta Group. From the previous The second city in Yunnan has dropped to the fourth place now. Compared with the other two cities, Yuxi has a much smaller jurisdiction and fewer people. It also has a better GDP per capita. Generally speaking, Yuxi is the least far-sighted city. We have worked hard to develop Hongta District. Other counties and districts below have been severely suppressed. It is also the efforts of the counties and districts below to prevent Yuxi City from having poverty-stricken counties. For example, Tonghai County, the most densely populated place outside Kunming City, has more people and less land. With the efforts of the people, it has developed into a hometown of Yuncai, with numerous agricultural products on the plateau and a developed handicraft industry. In the future, the second city in Yunnan will still be Qujing. Honghe Prefecture is developing rapidly and Yuxi is dying.
Yunnan is located in the southwest border of China. The province has a total area of ??about 394,000 square kilometers and a permanent population of 48 million. , *** has 8 prefecture-level cities and 8 autonomous prefectures under its jurisdiction. There is no doubt that the largest city in Yunnan is the provincial capital Kunming. Kunming is the political, economic, cultural, science, education and transportation center of Yunnan. It is also an important tourism and trade city in China and one of the important central cities in the western region. So after Yunnan, which city is Qujing, Honghe or Yuxi? Personally, I think it’s Qujing.
Qujing is the most populous city in Yunnan, with a resident population of 6.12 million, ranking second after Kunming; and a registered population of approximately 6.572 million, ranking second First in the province. From the perspective of economic aggregate, Qujing's GDP in 2018 was 201.33 billion yuan, ranking second in the province after Kunming. Although the GDP of Honghe and Yuxi followed closely, there is still a large gap.
Qujing is located in the northeast of Yunnan Province, adjacent to Guizhou Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It is known as the "Key to Yunnan and Guizhou" and the "Throat of Yunnan". The city has a total area of ??32,565 square kilometers and is rich in resources. There are 30 proven mineral resources, among which coal, iron, phosphorus, aluminum, lead, zinc, sulfur and other reserves rank among the top in the province. Qujing is an important industrial city in Yunnan and an important part of the Central Yunnan Economic Zone and the Panxi-Liupanshui "Golden Triangle" Development Zone. Its overall comprehensive strength ranks second in the province, and it is now steadily advancing to become an industrial city. development strategy and good future development prospects.
Let’s look at the title first. People say that in the future, Honghe Prefecture deserves the title, culture (Jianshui Confucius culture), tourism (Maitreya Hot Spring, Jianshui Ancient City, Yuanyang Rice Terraces, Kaiyuan 100-year-old Meter Gauge, Shiping Tuan Mountain) , Hekou border), food (Mengzi cross-bridge rice noodles, Shiping barbecue, Kaiyuan roasted tofu), ports, transportation (the completed Maitreya and Mengzi high-speed railways, the Maitreya-Mongolia high-speed railway under construction and Kaimeng urban rail transit), the future Once the "Gemengkai" economic circle is built and radiates to the surrounding areas, secondly, how can other places be compared? Don't talk about education, talents, etc. People all know that when they go to higher places, water flows to lower places. Can't a good future and good planning attract them?
Honghe must surpass Qujing, and then Qujing will have a sense of crisis. In terms of facts, the key is the economic structure and urban development of the two places by 2020. In 2017, the total economic output of the three scattered cities of Gejiu, Kaiyuan, and Mengzi was equivalent to 61.8 billion in a Qilin district in Qujing. Now that the three administrative districts of Qilin, Zhanyi, and Malong in Qujing are basically connected, the urban economic development will be very rapid. Come on, when will Gejiu, Kaiyuan and Mengzi in Honghe be connected?
In the future, the second city in Yunnan can only be Qujing, because Honghe is not considered a city, and the development of Yuxi is getting slower and slower. Let's first take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of these three cities (autonomous prefectures), and everyone will understand which city has greater advantages.
Qujing City is located in the eastern part of Yunnan Province. It is an important industrial and commercial city in Yunnan Province and the second largest city in Yunnan Province. In 2020, Qujing's GDP surpassed Lanzhou, the capital of Gansu Province, and Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia, and was strongly shortlisted for the "Top 100 GDP Cities in China", ranking 92nd. In addition, Qujing City is also an important transportation hub city and chokepoint in Yunnan Province.
The advantages of Qujing City are its large population base, industrial and commercial foundation, and the economic development of various counties and cities besides the main city is also very strong. In addition, Qujing City’s secondary education and higher education are also very strong. In terms of secondary education, there are the famous “Qujing No. 1 Middle School” and other schools. In terms of higher education, there are four universities including “Qujing Normal University”. The number of universities is the only one in the province. Second to Kunming. The disadvantages of Qujing City are that its population is too large, which makes it inferior to other states and cities in terms of per capita. In addition, its industry needs to be strengthened. At the same time, the population in the central city is not concentrated enough and cannot meet the standards of a large city.
Honghe Prefecture is located in the southern part of Yunnan Province. It is one of the birthplaces of industry in Yunnan Province and the third largest economy in Yunnan Province.
In 2020, the GDP of Honghe Prefecture surpassed all prefecture-level autonomous prefectures in the country, ranking first among the autonomous prefectures in the country. At the same time, the total GDP ranked 115th among prefecture-level units in the country. It may be shortlisted for the "Top 100 GDP of Chinese Cities" in the future. In addition, Honghe Prefecture is also an important port for Yunnan's opening up to the outside world and one of the important channels for communication with the Pearl River Delta.
The advantage of Honghe Prefecture is that it has a certain industrial base, and the counties in the northern part of Honghe Prefecture are also developing very well. In addition, Honghe Prefecture has an important opening port in Yunnan Province and borders Vietnam. In today's era of economic globalization, if we can make good use of this, Honghe Prefecture can also take off! The disadvantage of Honghe Prefecture is that the economic development of several southern counties is not ideal, and the development of Mengzi City, the prefecture capital, is not good enough. In addition, Honghe Prefecture is not considered a city, but an autonomous prefecture. If it wants to compete for the second city in Yunnan, it must integrate the counties and establish a prefecture-level city.
Yuxi City is located in the central part of Yunnan Province. It is the true central Yunnan region. It is the third largest city in Yunnan Province and one of the richest areas in Yunnan Province. Although Yuxi City's GDP ranked fourth in Yunnan Province in 2020, it exceeded the 200 billion mark and ranked 139th in the country. In addition, Yuxi City is also the hometown of clouds and smoke and the former residence of Nie Er. The water quality of Fuxian Lake in the city is good and famous throughout the country.
The advantage of Yuxi City is that it is close to the provincial capital, which can help economic development to a certain extent. In addition, Yuxi is also one of the sub-centers and hubs of Yunnan, with great potential in the future. The biggest disadvantage of Yuxi is that the population is too small to support the development of the city; in addition, the development of industry and tourism in Yuxi is not outstanding and develops slowly. However, I think Yuxi is still the third largest city in Yunnan, after all, other cities cannot compete.
With the success of Qujing City’s economic transformation, the second largest city in Yunnan will only be Qujing City for a long time to come. Qujing's development in education, talent, industry and commerce and other fields is becoming more and more prominent, and its development will be faster and faster in the future. Although Honghe Prefecture is the third largest economy in Yunnan, it is only an autonomous prefecture after all. Its economic development is not concentrated enough to be compared with prefecture-level cities, but its economic aggregate cannot be underestimated; although Yuxi City has temporarily retained its fourth position in GDP, if The growth is still so slow and may decline in the future, but we still hope that Yuxi will get better and better.
The above are the reasons why I think Qujing will be the second city in Yunnan in the future. Everyone is welcome to comment.
This cannot be compared. Each has its own merits. City after city is developing, but after so many years, Qujing is still the second largest city in Yunnan, whether it is GP, population, industry, etc. They are all following the provincial capital cities. If Qujing's original four counties, namely Yiliang, Songming, Shilin, and Xundian counties, were not forcibly divided into the provincial capital Kunming, then Qujing might be the boss of Yunnan...
It must be Honghe. Honghe’s economy has developed rapidly in recent years. I can personally feel it.
Honghe, because Honghe Prefecture is China’s frontier city facing Southeast Asia and its economic strength ranks first among the ethnic autonomous prefectures in the country. There are four county-level cities, unique in Yunnan! As long as the three cities of Gejiu, Kaiyuan and Mengzi are connected together, their urban area and economic strength will be the second largest city after Kunming in Yunnan. Just look at their state capital building to see how strong their economic strength is! !
None of them are. Among them, the full name of Honghe is Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, which cannot be called a city. If it is called a city, it is Mengzi. Why is Qujing ranked second in the future? It just has a larger population. But the economy is poor and now the city is in embarrassment. Mining, tourism and cigarettes have lost their advantages.
Of course I choose the Red River: after seeing the second largest Confucius Temple in the country, Jianshui Ancient City, go straight to the world heritage Yuanyang Rice Terraces, and then follow the Red River south to the estuary of the city closest to the border in the country to experience the exotic customs. Then go to the national forest park Pingbian Dawei Mountain to enjoy the natural oxygen bar...
