(1) China's North-South Geographic Divide Marker Park is located on both sides of the ancient Huaihe River on the east side of Huaihai North Road.
According to reports, the theme sculpture design is novel and will be integrated with the famous landscape "Red Bridge" in Huai'an.
The theme sculpture is spherical in appearance and is located in the middle of the Red Bridge.
Taking the spherical shape as the parent body, it is divided into two hemispheres: northern and southern hemispheres. The northern side has gradually cooler tones, and the southern side has gradually warmer tones, implying the northern and southern climate characteristics of the earth.
Visitors can walk through the ball and experience the sensory changes across the northern and southern climate zones.
The Qinling Mountains-Huaihe River line that traverses China's east and west is considered to be the natural dividing line between north and south of China. The commonly known names "South" and "North" are derived from this natural dividing line.
This view has been recognized by domestic experts in geography, climate and other fields.
The thousand-mile Huaihe River passes through Huai'an City. Huai'an can be said to be a city spanning north and south.
After the news that Huaian started planning and building a landmark park last year, it immediately aroused doubts in Xinyang, Henan Province. They believed that Xinyang was more typical and representative of the geographical boundary between the north and south of China after conducting investigations from various aspects such as geological structure, climatic conditions, and forestry ecology.
sex.
In this regard, Yao Shimou, a professor and doctoral supervisor at the Nanjing Institute of Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, believes that the geographical dividing line between north and south is a relatively broad concept. The geographical differences between north and south are not monopolized by any province or region, and no city can absolutely represent it.
If geographical indications are to be established in the north and south of China, factors such as the past cultural traditions and historical origins of the region, differences in natural geography and climate should be taken into consideration. In addition, factors such as the long-standing location conditions of each city should also be considered.
