A

On April 1, 2017, China announced that it would build the Xiongan New Area in Hebei province. This will be of the same importance as the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone and the Pudong New Area, according to the State Council (国务院).

The area, about 100 kilometers southwest of downtown Beijing, will cover three countries that sit at the center of the triangular(三角形的)area formed by Beijing, Tianjin, and Shijiazhuang.

The Xiongan New Area has great potential(潜力)for growth. It has a broad space to develop and will expand(扩大)to cover 2,000 square kilometers. The transportation of the area is convenient, with only an hour’s drive to Beijing and Tianjin.

The new area also has a sound natural environment. It is home to Baiyangdian, one of the largest freshwater wetlands in North China. With more than 140 lakes, the wetland is known as the “pearl(珍珠)” of the North China Plain.

Once built, the area will reduce the heavy burdens(负担)on Beijing. For example, many companies, universities and scientific research centers will move from Beijing to the area.

International experts and media also think highly of this new area, saying that it will set an example for developing countries.
