If Anqing is the capital of Anhui, will it develop better than Hefei?

Not necessarily, even much worse than Hefei now. Anqing is located in the southwest corner of Anhui Province. Generally speaking, the location of this position is not very good, and it is not so good in obtaining resources. At the same time, it can't radiate to some surrounding prefecture-level cities, let alone bring good economic development. Don't underestimate Hefei, which is developing rapidly and being selected as a new first-tier city in the country, with great potential and strength. Although it seems that Anhui Province has a serious economic shortage compared with neighboring Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and other provinces, it is reasonable to evaluate its shortage from the geographical position.

And why do so many people like Anqing as the capital of Anhui? This thought mainly comes from Hu Shi, a great educator in China's modern history. In modern history, Hu Shi once launched a? Wuyuan returns to Anhui? Anqing used to be the capital of Anhui. Anqing people are naturally proud of this history. Can you still see the name of Anhui, Anqing? Ann? What about Huizhou? Emblem Now these two words are of great significance to Anhui people. So in the provincial capital, people think more of Anqing than Hefei.

But in fact, Hefei is more suitable to be the capital of Anhui than Anqing, which is mainly influenced by many factors.

1, geographical location factor

Hefei is located in the east of China, at the western end of the Yangtze River Delta, between Jianghuai and central Anhui. Anqing is located in the southwest corner of Anhui. Anqing is not close to the surrounding cities of Anhui. Anqing, as the capital of Anhui, is marginalized no matter where it is, which is not conducive to the economic development of other regions and has no effect on radiating to surrounding cities. Many people may compare Jiangsu at this point, but in fact Nanjing and Anhui are very different. Although Nanjing is also a corner in the southwest of Jiangsu, Jiangsu's development is so good, mainly related to Shanghai and Suzhou, and it will get better and better because of the driving of these places. However, compared with Anqing in Anhui, there is no surrounding city to drive it, so even if Anqing becomes the provincial capital, its development prospect is not as good as Hefei in central Anhui.

2. Population

Compared with Hefei, Anqing is more mobile, mainly due to traffic and geographical location. After all, as we all know, a population is productivity for provincial capital cities, and the population of Anqing is much less than that of Hefei.

Step 3 transport

There is a very important place to become a provincial capital city, which is transportation. In terms of transportation, Anqing's water transport is the first. But it is conceivable that the development of water transport is relatively backward today. Although Anqing was a battleground for ancient military strategists, it was also occupied by powerful enemies. So this has caused great damage to Anqing's economic development, even if it is difficult to repair it in the future.

Compared with Anqing, the former provincial capital, Hefei can replace it as the provincial capital, largely because of its own regional advantages and population, such as being in central Anhui, which in itself can facilitate contact with other cities. So as the provincial capital, location is very important.
