Chenzhou, Hunan, known as the "Oriental Pony Generation", kept a low profile for 2,200 years. Why the sudden fire?

Chenzhou borders Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province in the east, Shaoguan, Guangdong Province in the south, Yongzhou, Hunan Province in the west, Hengyang and Zhuzhou, Hunan Province in the north. Known as the "South Gate" of Hunan Province, it is the facade.

Chenzhou is one of the first historical and cultural cities in Hunan. Chenzhou is one of the birthplaces of China's farming culture. Emperor Yan Shennong discovered the "Oracle bones" and taught people to farm, creating a magical place of China's primitive farming culture. Chenzhou, known as "the land of nine immortals and two Buddhists" since ancient times, is a blessed place for the development of Taoist and Buddhist culture, and has become a symbol of China's ancient medical history and medical field. Chenzhou has always been a gathering place for literati.

Chenzhou embodies the blending and development of Huxiang culture and Lingnan culture. Chenzhou is known as the "Chu-Yue Passage". In the long-term development, Chenzhou people not only fully absorbed the heroic spirit and self-improvement spirit of Huxiang culture, but also inherited and developed the open and inclusive atmosphere and enterprising spirit of Lingnan culture, making it a heroic city with glorious traditions.

Although Chenzhou was once brilliant in history, the tourism industry suddenly declined decades ago because of the war, but it has developed rapidly in recent decades. I think there are the following reasons:

First, in recent years, the state has vigorously developed the tertiary industry and attached importance to the protection of cultural monuments and intangible cultural heritage, which has enabled Chenzhou to develop tourism. Moreover, Chenzhou is rich in tourism resources. For example, Yuan Longping, an academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, the "father of hybrid rice", wrote the name of Paddy Park; Mangshan Mountain is called "the first peak in the south of the day"; Changle River in winding mountains is one of the birthplaces of Pearl River. Thousands of stone pillars and peaks in Chenzhou Stone Forest are made of marble and granite, ranging from ten meters to tens of meters in height and in different shapes.

The largest is Jiulong River National Forest Park, which is adjacent to Danxia Mountain Scenic Area, a world natural heritage in the south, Mangshan Park, a national 4A-level tourist attraction in the west, and Dongjiang Lake, Jinggangshan, the cradle of revolution, and the Mausoleum of Guo Zuyan in the north. Known as "three provinces crow and three rivers splash water".
