China is a big country in the world, both in terms of land area and population. China is also an ancient civilization, with 31 provinces and more than 6 cities. Today, Xiaobian will tell you the names of cities, and the names of each city have their special meanings. Today, I want to talk to you about Baiyin City, the only city named after "currency" in China. The origin of its name is related to the rich mineral resources in the local area. In the Ming Dynasty, a silver factory was opened in this city, and the name of Baiyin City came from this. Let's take a look with Xiaobian.
Baiyin city is located in the middle of Gansu province, and its special geographical position makes it rich in mineral resources. During the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 3 mining sites in Baiyin City. At that time, Baiyin City could be said to be fighting for gold at sunrise, and the government set up a mining organization "Baiyin Factory" not far from the urban area, hence the name of Baiyin City.
Baiyin city is rich in mineral resources, with a wide variety, up to more than 3 kinds according to statistics, so Baiyin city can be described as a treasure. Because Baiyin City is rich in mineral resources, it is also called "Copper City" by many people. Now Baiyin City has many non-ferrous metal industrial bases and is a national key mineral resource city. In addition, Baiyin City is rich in coal resources. Baiyin city is a great treasure of our country.
Baiyin, which is rich in mineral resources, has a good economic development, but few people know about this city. Although the city is rich in mineral resources, it does not have its own tourism characteristics. Moreover, the city is seriously short of water and the natural environment is not very good. There are no particularly beautiful scenic spots, so it is not as good as Tibet and Xinjiang. I hope Baiyin will make good use of its own advantages and develop characteristic tourism.
