An earthquake occurred in Luchun County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan Province. What impact did the earthquake have?

(1) Earthquake in Yunnan

Recently, an earthquake of magnitude 4.4 occurred in Luchun County, Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan Province, with a focal depth of 11 kilometers. The earthquake caused a strong earthquake. Moreover, the place where the earthquake occurred is close to the national border, and within 2 kilometers around it, there are Daxing Town, Huangcaoling Township and other towns and villages.

It seems that Yunnan has been one of the provinces with the most frequent earthquake activities and the most serious earthquake disasters in Chinese mainland since ancient times. We can see from its geological structure that it is on the east side of the collision zone between the Indian Ocean plate and the Eurasian plate, and it is the most active plate in the world. Some experts have analyzed that the cause of the earthquake this time may be caused by the aftershock of the 7.8-magnitude Tang Priest earthquake in 1976. Because the earthquake activity in the aftershock area of Tangshan earthquake is very active, there should be about 4 or 5 earthquakes so far, for example, the earthquake in Tangshan City, Hebei Province in 1995, and the earthquake with a magnitude of 4.8 in Tangshan City, Hebei Province on May 28, 212.

(2) the impact of the earthquake

This earthquake caused a strong sense of shock in Beijing. However, the epicenter of this earthquake is about 18 kilometers away from Beijing. Because it is far away and the earthquake is not strong, this earthquake will not have a significant impact on the crustal stress and strain and seismic activity in Beijing, so this earthquake has not caused any substantial impact on Beijing's houses.

? Lijiang, Yunnan, has always been a place where people often travel before. This earthquake will have a certain impact on the tourism industry. Although the earthquake is not strong, flowers and plants will still be damaged to a certain extent, and the cultural relics of the country will still be damaged to a certain extent. It may be blocked to a certain extent. The earthquake will damage the roof and crack the fence to a certain extent. In order to prevent collapse, fewer people may travel. This will bring great economic difficulties to many people who depend on tourism. Because fewer people travel by earthquake, they will earn a lot less money, which will hit the growth of their tourism industry. It will take time to restore normal tourism, and the impact of the earthquake may not stop there. In addition to direct economic losses, the biggest blow will leave a shadow on tourists' hearts, because many people like to go to Old Town of Lijiang and wait for those cities, so the impact on travel agencies is great. Others are concerned about the disaster, and we go out to play. Is it emotionally unreasonable? . So it is likely to lead to the paralysis of tourism. However, I believe that with the stability after the disaster, tourism should slowly recover.

We have been paying attention to the earthquake since the day it happened, and we have been paying attention to the reports of everything happening. Seeing that the earthquake is happening, we are really helpless and can't do anything, and we are ashamed. My heart is just praying for the people in the disaster area, hoping that the earthquake will pass quickly and that the people in the disaster area can face life more firmly.
