Why do many people say Hangzhou is a first-tier city?

Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times, and Jiang Nanyi remembers Hang Cheng best. There are many definitions about Hangzhou: the happiest city, livable city and paradise on earth. Recently, I have seen a lot of discussions on whether Hangzhou will become a first-tier city on the Internet. This city, with world-class enterprises such as Alibaba and Netease, has enjoyed extremely high exposure in the past two years, hosting the G20 Summit and the Asian Games, with major events coming one after another, and making appearances in the global media.

? Hangzhou for short? Hang up? The capital of Zhejiang Province is located in the southeast coast of China, in the north of Zhejiang Province, in the lower reaches of Qiantang River and at the southern end of Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. It is a sub-provincial city, a political, economic, cultural, educational, transportation and financial center of Zhejiang Province, one of the central cities of the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, a city around Hangzhou Bay, a city in Hangzhou metropolitan area, and one of the important e-commerce centers in China. As of 20 17, Hangzhou has jurisdiction over 18 districts and 2 counties, and has jurisdiction over 1 county-level cities, with a total area of 16853.57 square kilometers (including the waters of Qiantang River, the dividing line between Qiantang River and the sea is Haiyan Ganpu? Yuyao West Gate is connected with Sanmen), with a permanent population of 9.468 million and an urbanization rate of 76.8%. In 20 17, the per capita disposable income of residents was 49,832 yuan, the total retail sales of social consumer goods was 57 17 billion yuan, and there were 2,844 high-tech enterprises.

With the expansion of urban pattern and the construction of traffic tracks, the major business districts in Hangzhou have formed a multi-point flowering pattern: the old business districts such as Wulin Business District, Hubin Business District and Huanglong Business District are still attractive, and the mainstay such as Qianxin Business District is full of vitality, while the new business districts such as Olympic Sports Business District, Chengbei Business District and Xiasha Business District are also developing rapidly.

As we all know, the next Asian Games will be held in the beautiful cultural ancient city of Hangzhou. This is another international activity after G20, which shows the development potential of Hangzhou. Of course, if you want to rank among the first-tier cities, there is a hard target that you must achieve, and that is? Population? . There is a good joke. Someone is not necessarily a line. No one, it must not be a line. ? Objectively speaking, Hangzhou does have an impact? A first-tier city? Potential, but at present, I am afraid it is still a breath away.

What is the core of Hangzhou's development? National tourist city? Dream of building a world-class cultural tourism city. This is a main line of its current international urban planning. What is the first impression of Hangzhou built around this main line for foreigners? Beautiful? 、? Civilization? 、? Smells like Jiangnan? , these keywords, with neighbors Shanghai? Financial capital, commercial capital, skyscrapers? The texture is very different.
