Economically, Haikou mainly promotes international tourism and the export of tropical cash crops, because the particularity of its geographical location determines its natural advantages in external development and internal contact, and it has a vast economic hinterland and developed transportation, sea, land and air routes. Yichang, as a sub-central city in Hubei Province, is similar to the former, and one of its economic pillars is tourism. Yichang's tourism system is not complete and standardized, but it is rich in resources, but suffers from few traffic lines. Now the national key central and western regions are rising, and the policy will be tilted to the central and western cities.
So Haikou is still economically developed.
