Cangzhou, Baoding and Handan, who will be the final winner in the competition for the second largest city?

Hebei province is a very low-key province, as in previous years? Less transparency? The same thing exists. When people hear the name of Hebei Province, they can't even tell where the capital city is.

In recent years, this province has finally launched an offensive of development, and gradually made a difference in the North China Plain, especially Tangshan, an excellent industrial city, whose GDP once surpassed the provincial capital Shijiazhuang to become the first. Today, Bian Xiao takes you to Hebei to see who is most likely to successfully challenge Shijiazhuang's economic status among the following three cities. Who will be the final winner in the competition for the second largest city?

We came to Cangzhou, the first city, with infinite expectation. In 20 19, the city's GDP was 358.8 billion yuan, ranking third in the province, and there was still a big gap from the second place, Shijiazhuang, with a score of 580.9 billion yuan. However, people have full confidence in the development of Cangzhou, because it is a hidden treasure city.

First of all, Cangzhou has a superior geographical position, is in the economic development circle around Bohai Sea, and is also an important coastal port city, so the traffic conditions here are very developed, which is conducive to trade exchanges with surrounding cities. The landmark building of this city is Cangzhou Iron Lion. Dongguang Tiefo Temple is a national 4A-level scenic spot, and it is a very popular tourist attraction, with a constant stream of devout Buddhist believers.

Next, we came to Baoding, the city with the fourth economy. In 20 19, the city's GDP was 355.7 billion yuan, almost the same as that of Cangzhou. So is it possible for this city to surpass Cangzhou and challenge Shijiazhuang? Bian Xiao thinks there is still great hope.

Because Baoding is one of the central cities of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Economic Zone and an excellent tourist city. Thousands of years of history and culture have accumulated here. Dacige and Qingxi Mausoleum are very popular scenic spots waiting for you to punch in. Baoding has a perfect folk art background, and there are free bamboo festivals and lantern festivals.

Finally, the place we are going to is Handan, which ranks fifth in economy. The name of this city reveals historical and cultural information, idioms? Handan toddler? It happened here. In 20 19, the city's GDP was 348.6 billion yuan, which was directly related to the driving role of tourism.

For example, Wagong, a national 5A-level scenic spot, is a relic full of artistic value and the most prominent one among the scenic resources, and the ancient photovoltaic city is also the first choice for tourists to punch in. Can Handan City stand out by its own advantages now? Let's wait and see.

Bian Xiao said so much, do you have a deeper impression of Hebei? Who do you think has the greatest potential to attack the provincial capital Shijiazhuang? Who will become the second largest city in the province? Please leave us a message.
