Henan, as a province in the middle of China, has always been a province with a large population, and in the past two years, the rise of the provincial capital Zhengzhou has been staggering. Although at present, the total GDP of other cities in Henan except Zhengzhou is not very high, but I believe that in the future, Zhengzhou will inevitably feed the little brothers in the province after going further, and everyone will make progress together. There is a small county-level city in Henan, which is really not famous today, but in The history of China, it should have had its own strong mark.
It is the city of Yuzhou in Henan Province. Even if everyone has never heard of this city, then from this name, it is not surprising that it will be related to a figure in ancient China, Dayu, yes, there is no accident this time, it is true. During the Shun period of Yao Shunyu, Yu was divided into Xia Bo in the territory of the present-day city of Yuzhou. Yu's son was named Qi, and it was he who single-handedly created the xia dynasty, the first slavery feudal dynasty in ancient China, and the capital of the xia dynasty was located in Yuzhou. And Yuzhou was therefore called "the first capital of China" by later generations. The prosperity of the future economy, politics and culture is from here step by step, such a city, naturally should be known.
The Yuwang Suojiaojing in Yuzhou City was built later to celebrate the great deeds of Dayu in controlling water. The wellhead of the Yuwang Lock Jiao well is covered by a huge stone, and there is also an iron chain on the stone, and below the well is a huge dragon head carving. There is also a large hall next to it, which contains the statue of Dayu, which is nearly 3 meters high. In addition, there is the Xia Tai at the time of the founding of the Xia Dynasty, which is now also known as the Gujun Tai. In addition, there are Yuzhou Forest Park and Dahongzhai National Forest Park, which are worth seeing beautiful places.
Although Yuzhou has a very brilliant position in history, after all, the geographical location and various factors are superimposed, so that it is not a very good development of the city, at present Yuzhou City is only a county-level city, managed by Xuchang City, it can be said that it is quite aggrieved. As a county-level city, Yuzhou's county economy is actually quite good, in the 18 years of the country's top 100 counties, Yuzhou city ranked 69th, higher than the county-level city under the jurisdiction of Henan Province, Xingyang City ranked higher. Yuzhou is famous for a kind of porcelain and medicine, of which porcelain is jun porcelain, Yuzhou is the only place to produce Jun porcelain in China, and Jun porcelain is one of the five famous porcelain in China. In addition, in terms of medicine, Yuzhou also has a very high reputation, from the Ming and Qing dynasties is one of the most important distribution centers of Chinese herbal medicines, so Yuzhou also has a "medicine capital" title.
