Xiangyang and Yichang, who will become the second largest city in Hubei Province?

Hubei Province is an inland province, located in the middle of China. Judging from the development in recent years, Hubei's economic development has been in the middle reaches of the country. Although not as good as the eastern coastal areas, there are actually relatively well-developed cities, such as Wuhan. I believe that most of your knowledge of Hubei Province is based on some impressions of Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province. Wuhan is also the largest city in Hubei, so today we will see who can become the second largest city among the remaining cities!

Judging from the GDP data of cities in Hubei Province, the total output of Wuhan is far ahead, ranking first. The other cities are Yichang and Xiangyang, which are second only to Wuhan, one is 370.936 billion, and the other is 369.48+0 billion, with equal strength. As we all know, Yichang is the dividing line between the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River and a city in southwest Hubei. At the same time, it is also a member of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and its future development depends on the Yangtze River Economic Circle. As an important port city along the Yangtze River, it has good development conditions because of its rich mineral resources. In addition, many cities pass by, and Yichang's water transportation is a great advantage. It is also worth mentioning that the famous Three Gorges Project and Shennongjia are located in Yichang, which not only attracts a large number of tourists, but also provides good business opportunities, which is also a key part of Yichang's economic growth. This shows that the development of Yichang is promising and promising.

Xiangzhou, the advantage of economic development lies in its agricultural resources advantage and industrial agglomeration effect. In agriculture, Xiangzhou's meat production has always been the first in Hubei Province, and its oil production has occupied the third place in China for many years. As a famous commodity grain base and animal husbandry area in China, his strength in agricultural and sideline products processing is beyond doubt. Xiangzhou's textile and garment industry has always been a traditional pillar industry and is now very mature. Years of development have accumulated rich technology and a large number of outstanding talents, and the current market prospect is very good. In recent years, Xiangzhou modern logistics industry has developed very well, including Guo Bang Logistics Park and Dengcheng Shengzi Market. Judging from the above advantages, Xiangzhou has a strong momentum and is indeed comparable to Yichang. In the future, these two cities will have their own characteristics. So which one do you prefer? Who do you think will win the second largest city?
