As neighbors of Shanghai, which one, Jiangsu or Zhejiang, has a deeper connection with Shanghai?

Generally speaking, the relationship between Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai is relatively deep, especially Su, Xichang and Hangjiahu, Shaoyong in Zhejiang. They are all close to the Shanghai dialect and culture, and belong to the Wuyue culture. Generally speaking, in the previous In terms of administrative regions, Shanghai is closer to Jiangsu because Shanghai used to belong to Songjiang Prefecture and was administered by Jiangsu Province. It later became a municipality directly under the Central Government. Therefore, the relationship between Su, Xichang and Shanghai in Jiangsu is extremely close, but Zhejiang has never had such a relationship. Shanghai, but also because it is very close to Shanghai and has close cultural proximity, many people from Jiaxing, Ningbo and Shaoxing in Zhejiang have also migrated to Shanghai in modern times, especially Ningbo people. There are many Shanghainese whose ancestral home is Ningbo, so Shanghai regards Ningbo as It has become a second hometown. Now that the Yangtze River Delta is integrated, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are extremely closely connected with Shanghai.

Everyone knows that Shanghai is the most economically prosperous city in my country and the leader of the Yangtze River Delta. Shanghai is a prosperous international metropolis and borders the two economically developed provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have been It has always been a very wealthy land of plenty. Nowadays, the integration of the Yangtze River Delta has Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai as the core area and radiates to some surrounding cities. Many people are curious that Zhejiang and Jiangsu are also bordered by Shanghai, especially Su, Xichang, Hangjiahu and Shanghai have the same culture. Which one is the same between Zhejiang and Jiangsu? What is the deeper connection with Shanghai? I think just looking at culture, Zhejiang may be a little deeper, because Hangjiahu in Zhejiang and Ningbo and Shaoxing all belong to Wuyue culture. Southern Zhejiang actually also belongs to the Wu dialect area, but the accent and wording in the north are slightly different. Jiangsu only has Su, Xichang It belongs to the Wu Cultural Core Area, including the provincial capital Nanjing and most cities in northern Jiangsu belong to the Jianghuai Cultural Circle.

Zhejiang and Shanghai are also closer in terms of language and food, but in terms of regional division, Shanghai and Jiangsu seem to be more closely connected, although Shanghai does not belong to either Zhejiang or Jiangsu now. Provincial management, but in the past Shanghai was called Songjiang Prefecture, which was a region of Jiangsu. Therefore, Shanghai at that time was closer to the current Suzhou in terms of humanities and dialects. Even now, Suzhou, Wuxi and Shanghai have many connections. Many Shanghainese I have relatives in southern Jiangsu, but Zhejiang has never governed Shanghai. Like Huzhou and Jiaxing, it borders Shanghai and has not been affected by Shanghai's economic radiation.

Of course, Ningbo and Shaoxing in Zhejiang may be closely related to Shanghai, because after Shanghai opened as a port in modern times, many Ningbo people poured into Shanghai and became the backbone of Shanghainese. Now in Shanghai dialect Ala comes from the Ningbo dialect. Many local Shanghainese are actually from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, so they have a greater sense of belonging to Ningbo. However, with the integration construction of the Yangtze River Delta, whether it is Jiangsu or Zhejiang, their connections with Shanghai will be limited in the future. Even closer, this is the richest region in the country, and transportation and cultural exchanges will become more and more frequent in the future.
