"New Silk Road" is a milestone of railway in the new era
On December 18, with the opening of Subei Mahai section and the opening of Dunhuang railway, the first circular railway network was formed in Northwest China. (Xinhua News Agency) the completion of the
bullet train will greatly promote the communication between Dunhuang and the outside world. It will carry more famous tourists, which is conducive to the vigorous development of local tourism. Secondly, the intersection of multi cultures is once again diversified after thousands of years. The heroic people in Dunhuang cry with their swords in their arms, the sound of their hooves turn fast around, the west wind of white geese turns purple, and the tragic grand meeting of the soap carving sunset and yellow sand makes people know more about the significance of the journey of thousands of miles and improve their insight and mind. Moreover, the convenience of transportation will directly affect the economic development along the way. Dunhuang's fruits, cultural symbols and so on spread by Dunhuang railway, which accelerated the pace of economic exchanges in many places.
Dunhuang railway connects Liugou station of Lanzhou Xinjiang Railway and yinmaxia station of SiGe section of Qinghai Tibet railway, with a total length of 671km. There are only 14 national scenic spots along the line, including Mogao Grottoes, yumengguan and other historical and cultural sites, Yadan landform, transparent mengke glacier and other natural scenery. With the opening and operation of dunge railway, it is of great significance to accelerate the development of Qaidam basin resources, drive the development of tourism in the western region, and boost the economic and social development. In the future, the railway traffic between Xinjiang and Tibet will no longer bypass Lanzhou, and the transportation distance will be shortened by at least 1000 kilometers. The
dunge railway has brought new hope to the people along the line and added new engines for the high-quality development of the western region. We have reason to believe that with the continuous acceleration and improvement of the pace of railway construction in China, it will also inject strong power into the economic development of more regions in the western region, which is the most convenient "New Silk Road".
"the railway has built Yumen pass, and will go out of Yangguan in the west to meet the old people!" With the development of the railway, the continuous completion of each line, the continuous establishment of milestones, and the progress of the times, China Railway will always stand in the forefront of the times, to ensure the great rejuvenation of China!
