Beihai City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Pearl City

Beihai is the largest coastal city in Guangxi, and one of the main battlefields in Beibu Gulf Economic Zone. Because it is rich in world-famous Hepu pearls, it is nicknamed "Pearl City". Beihai City was under the jurisdiction of Hepu County in Han Dynasty (the site of Bailong Pearl City in tieshangang district today). During his tenure as the prefect of Hepu, Meng Chang made great efforts to rectify the official management, leaving an allusion of "Hepu Pearl Return". At the beginning of 199s, the first round of opening-up development and construction boom in Beihai City rose, and the nickname of "Pearl City" became popular. The pearl shell sculpture in Beibu Gulf Square was taken as the city symbol to establish Beihai's status as a "Pearl City", while Hepu County, a county under the jurisdiction of Beihai City, called it "the hometown of southern pearl" for short.

Hepu County, as the "hometown of Nanzhu" in China, Nanzhu is one of the "three treasures" in its territory, and it is the first of the "three treasures". Today, the site of Bailong Pearl City in tieshangang district, Beihai City was originally under the jurisdiction of Hepu County, and was later included in the jurisdiction of Beihai City. Therefore, it is reasonable for Beihai City to take "Pearl City" as another name from the perspective of historical materialism. Beihai is rich in tourism resources, such as:

Beihai Yintan National Tourist Resort, which was inscribed by former national leader Hu Yaobang as "the first beach in the world".

Seaports, airports, highways and railways can't be found in the west of China. Beihai, which is located in the junction of South China Economic Circle, Southwest Economic Circle and ASEAN Economic Circle, is speeding up the construction of land, sea and air infrastructure to save the province and the border, so as to build a convenient international corridor connecting the sky and the earth.

Make the maritime tourist route bigger and stronger-make it a "golden waterway" for economic development

From May 9 to 12, 27, the Beihai Sub-delegation of Guangxi Economic and Trade Delegation came to Vietnam with good news: the motion of extending the maritime tourist route between China and Vietnam put forward by Beihai was actively supported by the State Tourism Administration of Vietnam. The Sino-Vietnamese sea route, which was opened in December 1997, connects Yintan in Beihai, the first beach in the world, and Halong Bay in Guilin on the sea in Vietnam. In the past 1 years, it has attracted nearly 26, tourists to visit Vietnam, which has promoted the economic development of the two places. Especially since the deepening of cooperation between China and ASEAN, the exchanges between Beihai and ASEAN have become more and more frequent. In 26 alone, Beihai's maritime tourist routes received more than 1, tourists, accounting for one-fifth of China tourists' travel to Vietnam. Because of its huge development potential, this route is called "golden waterway" by people in the industry.

With the continuous warming of the North Sea travel route to Vietnam, at present, it is the expectation of cities in China, Vietnam and even the Pan-Beibu Gulf region to further expand this route and extend cruise stops. At the recently concluded first Pan-Beibu Gulf Mayor's Forum on Regional Economic Cooperation, the heads of tourism departments of Beihai City and Hue Province in Chengtian, Vietnam signed the Memorandum of Tourism Cooperation, and the two sides reached a * * * understanding on the development of tourism in the two places and the extension of the Beihai-Vietnam maritime tourism route to Hue Province in Chengtian. At the forum, Beihai City also proposed to actively strive to open a six-nation ASEAN sea tour and further expand the route to coastal cities in other countries and regions in the Pan-Beibu Gulf. To this end, during their stay in Vietnam, the Beihai delegation paid a special visit to the Vietnam National Tourism Administration to dock the extension of the cruise route between China and Vietnam.

during the talks, the two sides conducted in-depth discussions and pragmatic exchanges on the route extension scheme of China-Vietnam maritime transnational tourism routes, cruise ship berthing, passenger documents, route recommendation of tourism products, and two-way passenger delivery. The head of Vietnam National Tourism Administration said that he is willing to actively coordinate relevant departments to provide more convenience for China tourists to travel in more cities in Vietnam with their passes, and proposed that Beihai cruise enterprises cooperate with Vietnamese tourism companies to open up coastal maritime tourism routes in Vietnam and explore ways of cruise economic cooperation among Pan-Beibu Gulf tourist cities.

after years of construction and development, the operation scale of China-Vietnam sea route has been continuously expanded, and the cruise ship has grown from 3, tons to the current 1, tons; The number of passengers has increased from 2 to 3 to 1, per ship; The facilities and equipment of the cruise ship have developed from simple passenger transport to a modern cruise ship with complete facilities, comfort and luxury, which integrates the functions of eating, living, shopping, entertainment and swimming. The Sino-Vietnamese sea route has high tourism development value and comparative advantage because of its simple procedures, low tourism price, distinctive exotic features and unique products, and has become an important brand of tourism in the two places.

Start the construction of inbound railway-open up a new battlefield for port construction

Tieshan Port Industrial Zone is a new highland and main battlefield for Beihai to build economic development. For many years, the history of no railway has discouraged many investors who favor this fertile land for development. In order to speed up the opening-up and development of Guangxi Beibu Gulf Economic Zone and find a stronger supporting point for urban development in Beihai, railway construction is related to the success or failure of the development and construction of Tieshan Port Industrial Zone. On January 15th, 27, the branch line construction of Tieshan Port Railway in Beihai with a total length of 2 kilometers and a total investment of 2 million yuan was officially started. The start of this project will end the history of no railway in tieshangang district.

Beihai Tieshan Port Railway Branch Line starts from Hepu Shizi Road Township in the north and reaches Xinggang Town in tieshangang district in the south. It is built according to Class I enterprise standards, with a design capacity of 6 million tons/year. It is a key supporting project for the development of Tieshan Port Linhai Industrial Zone. The start-up of the branch line construction will play a positive role in promoting major projects such as forestry-pulp-paper integration, and also provide a reliable guarantee for the settlement and construction of large projects in the future.

In order to further promote the railway construction in Tieshan Port Industrial Zone, Wen Kahua, member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee of the Autonomous Region and secretary of Beihai Municipal Committee, and Mayor Lian Younong also made a special trip to Liuzhou to meet the senior leaders of Liuzhou Railway Bureau. The two sides held friendly and frank consultations on the construction of railway branch lines from Hepu to Hepu, Yulin to Hepu and Tieshan Port.

The senior management of Liuzhou Railway Bureau said that in the port development and construction, whoever owns the rear passage of the port can provide reliable transportation support, and urban development and port construction will be in an invincible position. The construction of the railway is imminent, so it is necessary to speed up the work progress, otherwise it will hold back the coastal development. Liuzhou Railway Bureau will actively promote the transformation of Guangxi coastal railway, agree to put Hepu-Tieshan Port railway construction on the important agenda, and immediately report to the Ministry of Railways, and actively coordinate with relevant parties in the autonomous region together with Beihai City to strive for the early start of the project.

speed up airport construction-build a brand-new and convenient air bridge

The Beihai-Kunming air route, which has been suspended for more than four years, has been officially resumed with the active efforts of the Beihai Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal Government and Guangxi Airport Management Group Beihai Airport Company.

After p>22, due to the influence of China-Vietnam border tourism policy and other factors, the routes from Beihai to Shanghai, Kunming and Guilin were suspended one after another. With the strengthening of China-ASEAN cooperation, Beihai has ushered in a new round of development boom, and the economy has started to grow at a high speed.

In p>26, China Southern Airlines and Shanghai Airlines decided to enter the North Sea aviation market after careful investigation and comprehensive analysis of their potential. However, the upsurge of North Sea development still exceeded their expectations. Take Beihai to Guangzhou as an example. During the Spring Festival, the passenger load factor of flights from Beihai to Guangzhou remained high, and the demand for air tickets was in short supply. China Southern Airlines responded quickly and decided to increase the number of aircraft and flights. Since March 26, the flight of China Southern Airlines from Beihai to Shanghai has been changed from Boeing 737 to Boeing 757, and from twice a week to once a day. This marks the recovery of the North Sea aviation market after three years of silence.

As one of the three major airports in Guangxi, Beihai Airport has opened more than 1 routes to Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Kunming and Changsha, with more than 1 flights per week. In order to improve the handling capacity and operation level of Beihai Airport and make Beihai Airport an important air port in Guangxi and even the coastal areas of South China, the new terminal building of Beihai Airport with a total investment of 38 million yuan was officially completed on November 11, 26. The new terminal building with an area of 27,8 square meters is equipped with a tarmac of 9, square meters, a parking lot of 23, square meters and six boarding seats. The new terminal can meet the annual throughput of 2.7 million passengers, transport 1,35 passengers in peak hours, park 1 large and medium-sized aircraft at the same time, and set up independent domestic and international processes.

"We will actively declare international airports and make every effort to expand international and domestic routes." The person in charge of the municipal government said that Beihai will truly become an international gateway through the "three carriages" of sea, land and air, and play an important role in the exchanges between China and ASEAN and between China and other countries in the world.
