Chongqing City, located in the western part of my country, is one of the four municipalities directly under the central government, is national central city and a megacity. has always been one of the top ten cities in the country. In the first half of this year, Chongqing's GDP was 1351.164 billion yuan, surpassing Guangzhou again and ranking fourth in the country. Chongqing has been promoting the development of automobiles, electronic information, equipment manufacturing, materials industry and energy industry in recent years, becoming a pillar industry of Chongqing's economy.
When Chongqing compares its comprehensive strength with other strong second-tier cities, the wealthy people are its biggest weakness. , especially in areas other than the main urban areas. At present, Chongqing City has a total of 26 districts, 8 counties and 4 autonomous counties under its jurisdiction. , but the main economic support is in 9 main urban areas, namely Yuzhong District , Jiangbei District , Nan'an District , Beibei District , Yubei District , Shazhouba District, Jiulongpo District , Dadukou District and Ban Banan District .
The development of other non-main urban areas has become an urgent problem that Chongqing City needs to solve. In the "Chongqing New Urbanization Plan (2021-2035)" released by Chongqing in February this year, will not only further accelerate the construction of the main urban area, but will also build 4 fulcrum cities and 2 urban clusters to support the development of other areas in Chongqing. The 34 fulcrum cities of Fuling District , Hechuan District, Yongchuan District, and Qijiang-Wansheng. will be built into a fulcrum and regional transportation hub for the central urban area to radiate outwardly in the future.
Take Fuling District as an example. It is located in the central part of Chongqing City, in the hinterland of the Three Gorges Reservoir District, with a total area of 2942.36 square kilometers and a GDP in 2021 of 140.274 billion yuan. Fuling District has the strength to become a fulcrum city, and it is also necessary to be conducive to the development of the entire Three Gorges region. builds two urban clusters, namely the Three Gorges Reservoir District Town Group in northeast Chongqing and the Wuling Mountain Town Group in southeast Chongqing.
The development of the two urban clusters has their own characteristics. For example, the urban cluster in the Three Gorges Reservoir District is the ecological priority and green development. mainly includes Fengdu, Zhongxian , Wanzhou , Yunyang , Fengjie , Wushan , etc. The urban cluster of Wuling Mountains in southeastern Chongqing is mainly cultural tourism, which will greatly promote the development of non-main urban areas in Chongqing. According to the plan, the permanent urban population of Chongqing will reach about 28 million by 2035.
