Longxi: When you open the voluminous literature and history books in China, you can't avoid the word "Longxi" everywhere. Because Longxi is located in the upper reaches of Weihe River, the largest tributary of the Yellow River, it is one of the birthplaces of ancient culture in China, and also the birthplace of Qin culture and harmony, bearing a heavy human history of more than 2,000 years. Longxi County, formerly known as Wu Xiang, was once the provincial capital. Geographical location of Longxi County [1] Before A.D. 1669, the center of Gansu's military and political culture was basically in Longxi. For more than two thousand years, Longxi was the largest military and political cultural center in the west of Chang 'an. The propaganda of historical and cultural cities and modern metropolises are two different fields and concepts. Unfortunately, the speed of economic development in a place should not affect its historical and cultural propaganda in this way. The name "Longxi" was recorded as early as the Warring States Period (Peking University Edition "Ancient History of China? 6? 1 teaching reference atlas). I think if Gansu gives up Longxi, it means giving up using powerful regional names and historical celebrities to illustrate the rich resources of Gansu's long human history, because Longxi is the most important economic and cultural center in Gansu history. Tianshui and Wuwei once had staged glory in history, or kept pace with Longxi, but their durability and overall weight were not as good as Longxi. As far as the historical humanities listed above are concerned, most of them are recorded in historical books in the name of "Longxi", which is the location of Longxi County in history. Longxi is one of the few typical place names in China's history and culture, not only in Gansu, but also in the whole country. It carries the national ancient books and culture. Moving away the voluminous cultural history books in China, we can't avoid Longxi (Longxi County, Longxi Ji Cheng, Weizhou, Changgong House, General Commander's Office, and Changgong Minister) everywhere, because Longxi is the primary area of the early cultural birthplace of the Chinese nation, with an endless stream of historical and cultural celebrities, and it is the birthplace of Qin culture and harmony. Lintao: Located in the middle of Gansu Province and the west of Dingxi City, it is the south gate of Lanzhou, the provincial capital. The county covers a total area of 285 1 km2, and governs 12 Lintao counties, including 6 towns, 6 townships, 6 communities, 324 village committees and 2,373 villagers' groups. At the end of the year, the resident population was 539 1 10,000, including 490,000 agricultural people. The cultivated land area of the county is 1.08 million mu, and the elevation is 1.730-3670 meters. The annual average temperature is 7℃ (the highest temperature is 34.6℃ and the lowest temperature is -29.5℃), the annual precipitation is 365,438+07-760 mm, and the frost-free period is 80-65,438+090. In recent years, Lintao County has successively won the honors of "National Hometown of Track and Field", "Hometown of Chinese Flowers and Trees", "Hometown of Chinese Folk Art", "Hometown of China Flowers", "National Advanced County of Scientific and Technological Progress", "National Advanced County of Disabled People's Work", "National Advanced County of Civil Affairs Work" and "National Demonstration County of Popular Science". The main features are: a long history and culture. Lintao, called Didao in ancient times, has been a famous city in the northwest, an important town in Longyou and the main road of the ancient Silk Road since ancient times. It is one of the birthplaces of ancient culture in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and is known as "the hometown of painted pottery" and "the county of culture". It has been more than 2380 years since the county was established. Majiayao culture, Siwa culture and Xindian culture, which are famous at home and abroad, were all named after their first discovery in China. From the cultural background, I think Longxi is better. Hope to adopt, thank you!
