China's land is vast,
The south has the richness of the south, and the north has the characteristics of the north.
Five thousand years of history,
Pick up a city,
Can dig out endless stories.

But there are some cities,
Always exceptionally memorable.
They either have no mountains, or they have no trees.
Even the origin of the name is unique,
Subvert your perception and imagination in minutes!

They are all "unique" in China.
Even the whole country can no longer find similarities.
Why not just take a look at it together,
Count these "only" cities in China,
How many have you been to?

The only Bagua city in China
Xinjiang Turks
See more and more cities, but like the city of the Gossip Array, you may not have seen it, here 64 roads are connected, full of mysteries.

Its roads are well connected, but it is never stuck in traffic. It was once the only city in China without traffic lights, but with the increase in tourists, some simple traffic lights have also begun to be set up here, but it still gives the impression of mystery.

NO.02
The only city in China named after a flower
Sichuan Panzhihua
When it comes to Panzhihua, many people think that it is just a "steel machine" without feelings, but walking into this small sichuan city named after the flower (Panzhihua is also called kapok), you will find that the "City of Steel" is the biggest misunderstanding of it!

It is not only a business, here is warm in winter and cool in summer, flowers bloom all year round, and there is a super high forest coverage and "intoxicating" fresh air, ready to surprise you anytime and anywhere!
© Figure: Xi Yun
Although it is not a famous tourist city, its super good climate and environment make it always rank at the forefront of healthy cities. If you want to avoid the flow of people for the winter pension, Panzhihua must not be missed.

The only city in China where tickets are free
Qinghai Yushu
I believe that people who love to travel have had such a distress: tickets are too expensive. Daqi often fantasizes: If only he could not charge a ticket!
© Figure worm Foshan - Yu
But in Yushu, Qinghai, you can really enjoy the beauty of Xinjiang and Tibet without spending a penny.
It is the source of the three rivers, the water tower of Asia. The Yangtze, Yellow and Lancang rivers originate here, as do tanggula, Kunlun Mountain and Bayankara Mountains.

There are mysterious temples, towering prayer flags, grasslands full of cattle and sheep, ancient salt farms with a long history... It can be said that it occupies 1/3 of the beauty of Qinghai, but it has always been a secret place in the hearts of many donkey friends that has not been out of the circle.
NO.04
The only city in China named after a cave
Fujian Longyan
The impression of Fujian is the Tulou of Zhangzhou, the tidal flats of Xiapu, the Tulou of Zhangzhou, and the Gulangyu Island of Xiamen.
In fact, in Fujian, there is also a low-key but stunning treasure land, which is the only prefecture-level city in China named after the "dragon", named after the cave.
© Figure worm
There is a sea of pink cherry blossoms comparable to Japan, there is the world-famous Yongding Tulou, and there is a historic "Hakka Sacred Mountain"... Although it does not see any famous mountains and rivers, it has a peach blossom source and ancient villages and towns.
Walking into Longyan, you can also feel the unique Hakka style of western Fujian, you can find a house to stay, and live a leisurely and leisurely slow life for a few days

NO.05
The only city in China named after a Taoist priest
Maoming, Guangdong
The impression of Maoming, in the star-studded Guangdong, the sense of existence is not very strong.
It has no dazzling lights, no metropolis hustle and bustle, but it has an appropriate gentleness, which is best for sneaking around for a while.
© Figure worm wine mellow meat aroma
Maoming, taken from the name of a Taoist monk, has not changed for thousands of years.
And the city, just like its name, although it sits on the top seascape, has won the charm of Chinatown No.1, and frequently appears on CCTV, it is still pure-hearted and unhurried to live its own small life.
© Figure: Wu Hao JUN
Here there are alpine meadows in the north and vast seas in the south, where flowers bloom in all seasons and good fruits continue. Seafood snacks during the day, night market at night, just want to live for a few days and don't want to go.

The only city in China where foreigners are not allowed
Sansha City, Hainan
It is the exclusive island of Chinese citizens, a more beautiful secret than the Maldives, foreigners can not go no matter how rich they are!

The sea here is full of colors and magnificence, and has been rated as "China's most beautiful island top 1" by China National Geographic, and it is said that only 0.01% of people have seen this glass sea with their own eyes.
However, due to the special strategic position here, even the Chinese people cannot stay and travel independently, but you can take a cruise ship with the group to see this beautiful secret place in the South China Sea.

The only city in China named after a great modern man
Zhongshan, Guangdong
There are many places named "Zhongshan" in the country, but there is only one city called "Zhongshan".
It is named after the great revolutionary ancestor Dr. Sun Yat-sen, and in modern times, countless celebrities have emerged: Zheng Zaoru, Yang Xianyi, Ruan Lingyu, Rong Guotuan, and Su Bingtian, the "Asian flyer" who made the people of the whole country boil.

But when you walk in here, you will find that it is not as solemn as imagined, but a livable and slow city that is delicious, good to live and beautiful!

Although it does not have a wide and deep bustling, it has a comfortable environment and a leisurely slow pace. Although the city is not large, the air is very good, and the greening rate is high, there are many parks, and you can see the sea of flowers all year round, which is surprisingly beautiful.

Among the hundreds of cities in China, there is a unique city that has the same name as the city where it is located, which is the hometown of Olympic champion Su Yiming, Jilin City.

The only city in China that does not have mountains
Yancheng, Jiangsu
Jiangsu is notoriously prosperous and rich, Nanjing, Suzhou, Yangzhou are all familiar, but Yancheng, the largest prefecture-level city in Jiangsu, is the hidden big guy who does not show the mountains and dew.

What makes it special is that it is the only city in China that does not have mountains. But it has the longest coastline in Jiangsu, the largest beach, or the capital of the fairy red-crowned crane, and every frame is a living national geographic blockbuster!

Although it is a city in northern Jiangsu, it also has the water charm of an ancient town that only exists in Jiangnan. In a small boat swaying in the river, you can feel the charm of the real Jiangnan.

China's only Russian ethnic township
Inner Mongolia Room Wei
Murong Wei, the only Russian township in the country, one of the top ten charming towns in China, is so beautiful that time is frozen!
Living in this town, you open the window and see no longer the reinforced concrete of the big city, but the steppes, the scattered woodcut cottages, and the blonde Russians.
When you have time, you can stroll along the banks of the Erguna River at sunset, watch the cattle and sheep return home in the distance, and watch the sun slowly disappear on the Taiping Line... To feel the gentleness and romance of nature.

The only city in China that does not have trees

There is a Tibetan proverb that "far away in Ali, suffering in that song", how bitter is it? With an average altitude of more than 4,500 meters above Nagqu, the harsh natural environment makes it the only city in the country without trees.

Although there is not a single tree in the whole territory, it is not a bare place, it has a clear and deep lake, a towering mountain, a vast alpine pasture... People can't help but sigh: there is such a fairyland!

The only county in China that can use the euro
Qingtian, Zhejiang
The heavens and the earth are so great that there are no wonders. Do you know? In the mountains of Zhejiang, there is a small Europe hidden, and it is not strange to trade in euros here, and even the mother-in-law who sells vegetables can accurately say the exchange rate of the day.

The only city in China to soak in spring water
Jinan, Shandong
Speaking of Jinan, Baotu Spring and Daming Lake here are still out of the circle, and people who can play will also pick a trip to Jinan in autumn. But I have never drunk the spring water of Jinan, which really misses its essence.
© Figureworm Tranquility Zhiyuan 9596
For foreign tourists, the most amazing landscape in Jinan is estimated to be a group of old Jinan people lining up to fetch water by the spring pool.
At first, you may not think so, but after taking a sip of tea brewed in the spring water, you will understand what is the best taste in the world.
It is precisely with the nourishment of the spring water that Jinan also has the flexible poetry of not losing jiangnan, and the ancient wall and the flowing water are yang, which adds a touch of gentle beauty to this old city in the north.

The only city in China with three license plates

Speaking of Foshan, everyone's impression is that it is very capable of fighting, not only the hometown of martial arts, but also the economy is also very capable of fighting!
But the charm of Foshan lies in its blend of ancient and modern, with both urban vitality and cultural precipitation.

When you come, you will find that it is grounded and pyrotechnic, and once the old streets and alleys are walked away, you will be fascinated by its simplicity and romance.
What's more, it is also the "World Capital of Gastronomy" officially declared by the United Nations, and the food that is not repetitive will never let you leave empty stomach!
