The two cities with the biggest historical gap in Hubei, who do you think will rise again in the future? Personally, the two cities with the biggest historical gap in Hubei are Jingzhou and Huangshi.

Jingzhou has a long history. In the heyday of Jingzhou, Yichang, Wuhan was not famous. But now, the economic development of Yichang in Wuhan is too far away from Jingzhou.

As for Huangshi, although it was only developed in modern times, its development momentum is very fierce, mainly to develop heavy industry. Once ranked second in Hubei, second only to Wuhan, so there is a nickname, called Huang. However, with the change of national economic development direction and the exhaustion of its own mining resources, it has been on a downward trend in recent years.

But to say who will rise again, I personally think it is Huangshi. First of all, Huangshi enjoys a superior geographical position, close to the provincial capital Wuhan. Secondly, the direction of Huangshi economic transformation is relatively accurate. In the future, cultural industry will be the focus of development, and Huangshi has begun to engage in industrial site tourism on the basis of modern industry. Now Huangshi has built a national mine park, huaxin cement factory site and so on.

Personal opinion, for reference only.

The oldest city in China is Xi Xi 'an, which was called Chang 'an in ancient times. Former names: Daxing City, Jingzhao, Fengyuan and Xijing.

It is the capital of Shaanxi Province, People's Republic of China (PRC), one of the national 15 sub-provincial cities, one of the nine regional centers and a world famous historical and cultural city. Xi is an important base of scientific research, higher education, national defense science and technology industry and high-tech industry in central and western China, and an important center of aerospace industry, machinery manufacturing and textile industry in China.

With a solid industrial base, it is one of the largest cities in western China with the strongest scientific and technological strength and the most complete industrial categories. By the end of 2005, the permanent population of Xi reached 8068 1 000, including more than 5 million urban residents.

There are 4 168200 males in the city, accounting for 51.66% of the total population; There are 3,899,900 women, accounting for 48.34% of the total population. Sex ratio (female 100, male 106.88).

I. Historical Brief Introduction Xi 'an, Athens, Rome and Cairo are also called the four ancient capitals in the world. From BC 1 1 century to AD1century, there were 13 dynasties or regimes that established their capitals and regimes in Xi 'an, which lasted for more than 1 100 years. From about 1 1 century BC to the end of 9th century AD, Ann was the political, economic and cultural center of ancient China for a long time, and was always under the jurisdiction of local administrative organs-Zhou, County, Fu, Lu, Province and Chang 'an and Xianning counties.

In most dynasties, Xi 'an was subordinate to Jingzhao Prefecture (county), which was a county-level organizational system. In the Yuan Dynasty, Jingzhao was changed to Anxi Road (later changed to Fengyuan Road). In the second year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (AD 1369), Fengyuan Road was abandoned and xi Anfu was established, hence the name An. 1928 was first established in Xi, and 1948 was changed from a provincial city to a city under the jurisdiction of the State Executive Yuan.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), Xi 'an was once a city under the jurisdiction of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, a city under the jurisdiction of the Northwest Administrative Region, a municipality directly under the Central Government and a city under separate state planning. Since 1954, Xi 'an has been the capital of Shaanxi Province, and now it is a sub-provincial city, with jurisdiction over nine districts and four counties. 198 1 year, UNESCO recognized Xi as a world famous historical city.

Second, the dynasty with Xi 'an as its capital In the history of China, 20 regimes were regarded as Xi 'an as its capital. But which of them should be called dynasty and whose capital should be regarded as Xi 'an is a controversial issue.

This is the different understanding of the concepts of "Korea", "capital" and "capital", which leads to the different understanding of which dynasty's capital is in a certain place. At present, the official statement is 13 dynasty.

There are four different opinions: 10, 1 1, 12, 14, 17. Among them, there are two versions of 14 dynasty and 17 dynasty. 10 Chao Shuo 10 Chao-in chronological order: Western Zhou Dynasty (363 BC), Qin Dynasty (0/5 BC), Western Han Dynasty (2 10 BC), Zhao Qian (0/65433 BC).

1 1 hypertheory 1 1 hyperon the basis of 10 hyperon, Wang Mang established a new hyperon (before 15). 12 Chao Shuo 12 Chao-On the basis of 1 1 Chao, the Western Jin Dynasty (four years of Yu) was added.

13 Chao Shuo 13 Chao-On the basis of 12 Chao, the Eastern Han Dynasty (6 years in Xian Di) was added. 14 chaoshuo 14 chaoshuo-there are two situations: (1) Adding Daxia Dynasty on the basis of 13 chaoshuo; (2) Wu Zhou founded by Wu Zetian joined the 13 dynasty (15).

16 Chao Shuo 16 Chao-On the basis of 13 Chao, the regime established in Liu Xuan at the end of the Western Han Dynasty was restarted, and the red eyebrow regime established by Fan Chong and Liu Pengzi and the Daqi regime established by Huang Chao were added. 17 Chao Shuo 17 Chao-There are two situations: (1) On the basis of 14 Chao, add Dashun established by Wu Zhou, Daqi and Li Zicheng; (2) On the basis of the 13 dynasty, a new initial regime, the Chimei regime, was established, and He Daqi Dashun was established.

Third, the relationship between Xianyang and Chang' an Historically, Chang' an in Xi and Xianyang today belong to the same city. This can be seen from the relationship between Xianyang and Chang 'an in ancient times.

Xi and Xianyang are the nearest cities in China, less than 20 kilometers. At the same time, Xianyang built the West Third Ring Road in Xi 'an, and the airport moved from Taoyuan in Xi 'an to Xianyang.

In 2006, Xianyang area code was merged into Xi 'an, and 029 area code was used together with Xi 'an. Xianyang, Qin Dou.

Epang Palace is located in a large area of Xi 'an today, and the Terracotta Warriors and Mausoleums are located in Xi 'an today. The ancestral temple of Qin was on the south bank of Weihe River, and Jing Ke stabbed the king of Qin, which happened in Qinzhangtai Palace (later the front hall of Han Weiyang Palace). Lin Xiangru, Lian Po and the king of Qin sat on the stage.

The layout of palaces in Qin dynasty has not yet formed the layout of Miyagi, Imperial City and Three Great Halls. Xianyang City, Qin Dynasty spans the Weihe River north and south.

Chang 'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty. Chang 'an in Han Dynasty was founded on the site of Xianyang in Qin Dynasty. According to historical records, "Chang 'an in Han Dynasty is also the site of Xianyang in Qin Dynasty", Zhang Heng's Xijing Fu says that Chang 'an in the Western Han Dynasty "crossed the Zhou Dynasty to explore the Qin system", and Huang Tu's Preface to Three Fu also says: "Wu Zhao governs Xianyang and takes Han as its capital".

"Old Tang Book Geography" said: "The capital is Xianyang, Qin and Chang 'an, Han. "After King Qin Huiwen, Xianyang continued to expand to the south, and built buildings such as Zhangtai, Xingle Palace, Ganquan Palace, Xin Palace, Epang Palace and Seven Temples in the south of Weihe River.

After Liu Bang won the world, under the persuasion of Lou Jing and Sean, he built Chang 'an as his capital. Restoration of Xingle Palace in Qin Dynasty was changed to Changle Palace, and Weiyang Palace was built on the basis of Qin Zhangtai.

That is to say, Chang 'an City in Han Dynasty was established on the basis of Xianyang, Qin Dou, indicating that the location of the capital was determined by Han Dynasty and Qin Dynasty. The Ques Palace in the Han Dynasty is located in Xi 'an Hancheng Reserve, north of the North Second Ring Road, and the mausoleum of Emperor Jingdi of the Han Dynasty is located in Xianyang.

Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Miyagi coincides with Xi 'an today, and the palace coincides with Xi 'an Ming City Wall today.

Most of the imperial tombs in the Tang Dynasty, such as Zhaoling Ganling, are located in Xianyang City today. The eighteen tombs in the Tang Dynasty were all in the county under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Prefecture, and Ganling was Fengtian County of Jingzhao Prefecture.

Xi and Xianyang in People's Republic of China (PRC) belong to the same city, and were divided into two cities in 1950' s: Xi and Xianyang. Xi is the deputy provincial level, and Xianyang is the prefecture level.

Geographical location Xi 'an is located in Guanzhong Basin in the middle of the Yellow River Basin in the hinterland of Chinese mainland, between east longitude107 40' ~109 49' and north latitude 33 39' ~ 34 45'. The eastern part is bounded by Zero River and Yuanqiu Mountain, and is connected with hua county, Weinan, Shangzhou and Luonan counties. The western part is bounded by Taibai Mountain and Qinghai Loess Plateau, bordering Meixian County and Taibai County. The main peak of the Qinling Mountains runs from south to north, connecting with the Giant Buddha.

What is the oldest city in China? Luoyang (English translation: Luoyang Hanyu Pinyin: Luo yáng) Historical place names: (Luoyi, Luoyi, Luoyang, Chengzhou, Xindayi, Shen Du, Luo Jing, Zhongjing).

Luoyang is located in the west of Henan Province, on the south bank of the Yellow River. It is one of the first historical and cultural cities announced by the State Council, one of the "four holy cities (Jerusalem, Mecca, Luoyang and Athens)" in the world, one of the starting points of the Silk Road (Luoyang and Xi 'an), the only city named "God Capital" in China history, the earliest and longest city in China history, and also an excellent tourist city in China and a city that "touched the world".

Luoyang is named because it is located on the north bank of Guluoshui. Heluo area with Luoyang as the center is an important birthplace of Chinese civilization.

Luoyang is the cradle of Chinese nation. Luo Jian, the eternal Huaihe River, is the cause of a magnificent ancestor.

In ancient China, there were myths such as Fuxi, Nuwa, Huangdi, Di Ku, Tang Yao, Yu Shun and Yu Xia. It is widely circulated here. Di Ku is the capital of Boyi, Xia Taikang moved to the capital field, and Shang Tang has its capital in Xibo; King Wu cut Zhou, and 800 princes would meet him; Duke of Zhou assisted the government and moved Jiuding to Luoyi.

Ping, Gaozu Duluo, Guangxu Zhongxing, Wei, Jin and Zen, filial piety reform, Sui and Tang Dynasties, Houliang, Thirteen Dynasties. After the Han and Wei Dynasties, Luoyang gradually became an international metropolis.

Luoyang used to be China's political, economic and cultural center, and also a transportation hub extending in all directions. In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the first large-scale highway network in China was established, with Luoyang as the center, as straight as an arrow and as far as it could reach. In the first year of the Great Cause of Sui Dynasty (AD 605), Yang Di made Luoyang its capital and ordered the Grand Canal to be dug. At this point, a north-south water transport network with Luoyang as the center and radiating more than 2,000 kilometers to the northeast and southeast has been formed. Luoyang is a scholar of China culture.

Historical research shows that civilization first sprouted here, Taoism began here, Confucianism originated here, Confucian classics flourished here, Buddhism first spread here, metaphysics formed here, and Neo-Confucianism originated here. Sages gather, people gather.

Luoyang is also the root of surname and Hakka. The earliest historical document of the Chinese nation, Hutuluo, came from Luoyang.

Fu, known as the "ancestor of humanity", was composed of eight diagrams and nine realms according to the river map and Luo's paintings and calligraphy. Since then, the Duke of Zhou gave rites and music, Lao Zi wrote a book, Confucius visited, Li and Ban Gu wrote China's first dynastic history "Hanshu" here, Sima Guang completed the historical masterpiece "Zi Jian" here, Cheng Yi and Cheng Hao started Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty, and the famous "Seven Sages in the Bamboo Grove" and "Twenty-four Friends in the Golden Valley" all gathered here and wrote a colorful chapter.

Heluo culture and Heluo civilization centered on Luoyang are the core and source of Chinese national culture and constitute an important part of Chinese civilization. Special note: the historical situation of Luoyang is complex and easy to be misunderstood.

1. The Shang, Zhou, Han and Wei dynasties moved their capitals many times, and Luoyang was one of them. 2. Due to the strategic and economic needs, some great dynasties established capital cities, such as the Tang Dynasty, whose capital is recognized as Chang 'an. Luoyang is called the capital because the rulers of the Tang Dynasty designated Luoyang as their palace and sightseeing place, enjoying the same organizational system as Chang 'an, and some emperors stayed here for a longer time, so they called it "Luoyang as the East Capital".

Although it can't be compared with Chang 'an in its influence and position on the whole imperial dynasty, it is different from ordinary local administrative units after all. Name of the ancient capital dynasty of the 13th Dynasty: the time when the emperor built the capital. Taikang, Zhongkang and Kongjia in Erlitou, Xia Yanshi, 2070- BC 1600, Shangtang in the ditch of the corpse township of Boyanshi, Shanxi, and Taikang BC 1600- BC 1040. Before 1046-before 771,Mu Wang and others went from Wang Ping to the kings of Luoyi (on both sides of Jian River) in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and before 256, * * 1 went to Luoyang and Xian Di, the ancient city of Han and Wei Dynasties in the Eastern Han Dynasty. ***5 Emperor 22 1-265 Western Jin Dynasty, Luoyang, the ancient city of Han and Wei Dynasties, Emperor Wudi of Han Dynasty to Yu, * * 4 Emperor 265-365,438+03, the ancient city of Luoyang in Northern Wei Dynasty, Emperor Xiaowen to Emperor Xiaowu * * 7 Emperor 493-534, the ancient city of Sui and Tang Dynasties and Emperor Gong 606-665.

Luoyang, the capital of China, was established in the Xia Dynasty, the first dynasty in China, with thirteen dynasties, namely Shang, Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Northern Wei, Sui, Tang, Hou Liang, Later Tang and Later Jin. 15 dynasty "13 dynasty" has always been an official statement, but according to historical records and archaeological discoveries, the most accurate statement is to add the capital of the Western Han Dynasty and the Wu and Zhou Dynasties to "13 dynasty", which is a fact generally recognized and accepted by scholars at present.

17 ancient capital of the dynasty added the Northern Song Dynasty and the Republic of China to "15 ancient capital of the dynasty". According to the historical records and the time of capital establishment, there are 23 dynasties in Luoyang, including Xia, Shang, Western Zhou, Eastern Zhou, Warring States Korea, King Yu at the end of Qin, Western Han, Reform, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Northern Wei, Sui, Li Wei, Zheng, Tang, Wu Zhou, Yan, Later Tang, Later Jin and Republic of China.

Therefore, Luoyang is the capital with the earliest capital, the most dynasties and the longest time in the history of China, no matter the dynasties or the number of regimes. Note: 1. On the third day of February 202 BC, Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor in Dingtao, known as the Western Han Dynasty or the former Han Dynasty in history.

In the month when Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, he came to Luoyang from Dingtao. "Zi Tong Zhi Jian" records: "The emperor bought wine in Nangong, Luoyang."

On the reward of merit, the civil servants and military commanders were all happy, so they made Luoyang their capital.
