However, from the perspective of development, Nanyang is a famous granary in China, with a vast territory, rich resources and a large population, which is twice that of Xiangyang. It has a solid agricultural foundation, superior conditions and fertile land, which is rare in China.
Tourism is a major feature of Nanyang. Nanyang's human resources and cultural heritage are very profound, and the famous "Five Saints" are unique in China. Geographical coordinates are located on the dividing line between the north and the south of China, and there are both climate, animals and plants, scenery in the north and scenery in the south. The attraction to tourists is also unique. If we can work hard on tourism products, the prospect of earning foreign exchange and income is infinite.
Nanyang is the core of China's sustainable redevelopment and the bridgehead of the development of the central and western regions. If we can take advantage of the east wind of the development of the central and western regions and follow the trend with the strong support of the state and the province, its development potential is immeasurable and its prospects are bright.
Nanyang and Xiangyang, located on the edge of Henan, Hubei and Shaanxi, are two powerful prefecture-level cities in Nanyang Basin, both of which belong to the Hanjiang River Basin, with a long history and rich cultural atmosphere. However, these two outstanding historical cities have been marginalized in the fiery planning of urban agglomerations in various countries. These two cities are not within the urban agglomerations of their respective provinces. For a long time, these two marginalized cities are distributed in different administrative plans, and their respective policies are fragmented, so the transportation and development plans cannot be effectively unified.
Because of its geographical location and rich resources, Professor Qin He, a former scholar, moved the capital to Nanyang Basin as early as 2008. Therefore, Nanyang basin has special advantages.
