Where is the only city in China with 8 airports?

There is an old Chinese saying: if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and there are many criteria to measure the prosperity of a city, and airports are one of them. Having said that, the airport is not something that can be built if you want to, not to mention anything else, many cities can't meet the condition of the site alone, and there is no development in three years and five years, where can there be such a large vacant land.

However, there is one city in China that has 8 airports, which is more than the capital Beijing. In addition, the city has only 2,500 people, and foreigners are not allowed to enter, why is that? Which city is this?

Sansha City, a prefecture-level city in Hainan Province, is located in the south-central part of the South China Sea, consisting of Xisha Islands, Zhongsha Islands, Nansha Islands and their nearby waters. In addition, the land area of Sansha City is only more than 20 square kilometers, and if you count the sea area, it can reach more than 2 million square kilometers. Due to the small land area of Sansha, the permanent population of the city is only 2,500 people, and there are not many enterprises, as of 2014, there are only 69.

In a manuscript called "The Book of Changing Roads", the history of Sansha City is recorded. About 7,000 years ago in the "Neolithic Age", the Chinese people had already built ships, as the first people in the world to build ships, ancestors drove small boats, to the unknown South China Sea to ask for survival resources, since then, Sansha City has been owned by China. In addition, the "Hanshu Geographical Chronicles" records:

Seven or eight thousand miles from Jiaozhi to Huiji, hundreds of miscellaneous places, each with its own caste. At that time, the islands of the South China Sea were under the jurisdiction of Baiyue.

The names of Nanhai Zhudao have been different at different times in history, but it is obvious that the South China Sea has always been under the jurisdiction of China. Therefore, in June 2012, the offices of Nansha Islands, Xisha Islands and Zhongsha Islands were officially abolished and Sansha City was established. However, the issue of sovereignty over the Nansha Islands has given rise to many disputes in recent years.

Due to its unique geographical location and resources, Japan attacked the Nansha Islands several times during World War II.

However, it is an indisputable fact that China has absolute sovereignty over the Nansha Islands, and any country that has any unequal thoughts about the Nansha Islands will be in vain. In addition, Woody Island is the gateway to the Spratly Islands and a must-go to Sansha City, and there are only two ways to get to Woody Island: plane and boat.

In 2017, flights were launched to Woody Island, but only for those involved in official activities.

In addition, only the military and civilians, staff and family members visiting relatives on the island can take the "Sansha No. 1" steamship, and the rest of the people who want to take it need to submit an application in advance and board the ship after approval. This is still the case for ordinary people, not to mention foreigners, not only does the review take longer, but also whether it can pass or not is two words. All in all, although there are 8 airports built in Sansha City, 3 of them are military and only 5 are civilian.

And many places in Sansha City do not allow photography, if you want to play, it is best to sign up for a tour group.

This city is Sansha City. Many of the airports here are military airports. That's why there are so many.

The city of Sansha has attracted a lot of controversy because of the city's unique geographical location, and in order to protect the city, there are three airports that are military.

This city is in Sansha City, because this place is relatively far away, although the population is not large, but there are many people who will travel there, so there are many airports.

I know that this place is Sansha City, which is a prefecture-level city in Hainan Province, and it is also the only city in China with 8 airports, which also promotes the local economic development.

It is the only provincial capital city in China that does not have an airport in its territory.

It's Xi'an. The tourist city of Xi'an, but there is no airport of its own. Friends who have been to Xi'an by plane know that the destination on the ticket is written Xi'an Peijia, including the words on the airport is also Xi'an, but after landing, I found that I received a mobile phone text message "Welcome to Xianyang".

If you turn on your phone location.

You will find that your location is in Xianyang City. Although the name of the airport is Xi'an, it is not in the city of Xi'an. Xi'an does not have its own civil airport.

The old airport is now a park. The new airport is called Xi'an Xianyang International Airport.

It is a joint airport for Xi'an and Xianyang City, and it is located in Weicheng District, Xianyang City, northwest of Xi'an City.

It is one of the eight major hub airports in the country.

Provincial capitals, which are usually the central cities of a province, are also competing among Chinese cities today"The main force"。Since the resources of each province will be tilted towards the provincial capital, the development speed of the provincial capital is now obvious to all, and the provincial capital has gradually become a high-profile development"Star city"。

The only provincial capital in China that does not have an airport is Xi'an. China has 23 provincial capitals and 5 capitals, but one of them has no airport: the famous Xi'an, once the world's top city, is now selected as a national central city. Xi'an has always been a tourist city that people yearn for, even when the tourism industry is not as developed as it is now, many people choose to go to Xi'an to experience the strong cultural heritage.

Xi'an is a famous provincial capital city in China and a well-known excellent tourist city, but it does not have its own airport. Xi'an is one of the four ancient capitals of our country, with a history of more than 1,100 years, more than 10 dynasties have built their capitals here, and the places of interest and historic sites in the territory are second only to the capital Beijing.

History of Xi'an

Xi'an is one of the first batch of national historical and cultural cities announced by the world, and has built its capital here by more than ten dynasties in history, and is one of the four ancient capitals in the world, and is one of the capitals with the most dynasties, the longest time and the greatest influence in Chinese history. As early as 1 million years ago, ancient humans in Lantian built settlements here; 7,000 years ago, during the Yangshao culture period, the rudiments of the city wall had appeared here.

In 2008, the relics of the late Neolithic period were unearthed in Yangguanzhai in Gaoling, Xi'an, which was selected as the first archaeological discovery in China that year, which was the earliest urban site discovered in China so far, and also advanced the urban history of Xi'an to the late Neolithic period more than 6,000 years ago.
