How long is Inner Mongolia? The straight-line distance is over 2,400 kilometers. Netizens: No wonder the express delivery does not include postage

Different provinces have different customs, and it is precisely because each place has its own particularity that " travel " becomes meaningful . There is not much difference between the place more than 1,000 kilometers away from the home and the scenery in front of the home , and you will definitely

However, some provinces not only have a large gap with other provinces , but also have large gaps between cities in the province due to different regions .For example, the gap between Shanghai and Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other economically developed regions is very large, which is caused by different geographical conditions. So how should we look at this issue? Due to its unique geography, climate and other conditions , Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has formed distinct regional differences, which affect the economic development of Xinjiang to a certain extent .

The most eye-catching is the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Those who want to ask why it is only because the time is too long .

How long is Inner Mongolia ?

As we all know , China's territory is very similar to a majestic and high-spirited rooster, and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is the back of this rooster, but the back is too "generous".

The total area of ​​Inner Mongolia is about 1.183 million square kilometers, including Xinjiang and Tibet ; the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is located in the northern frontier of the motherland, and is one of the earliest provinces and regions that have made breakthroughs since the implementation of China's Western Development Strategy. It is bordered by eight provinces on three sides, northeast, north and northwest . Its north borders with foreign countries and its border line is more than 4,200 kilometers .

If there are not many concepts described, you may wish to make some comparisons. For example, the distance from the United States to Canada is more than 1,700 kilometers; the distance from the United Kingdom to the Netherlands is more than 3,500 kilometers; and the distance from Japan to China is more than 4,660 kilometers. The distance from Beijing, China to Shanghai is more than 1,100 kilometers, and the distance from Beijing to Guangzhou is only more than 1,900 kilometers. Even abroad, the distance between countries like Poland and Spain is only more than 2,000. kilometer.

The straight-line distance in Inner Mongolia is only about 2,400 kilometers. Although this length is not long, it is enough to make people feel the vastness and grandeur of the grassland. If you want to know how Qinghai Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China, was formed, please read the special introduction in this issue! Note: This is still a "straight-line distance". In reality, it is only a short distance from the east to the west. After all, if you encounter lakes, rivers, and snow-capped mountains along the way, you always have to take a detour. Therefore, there are often more than 3,000 kilometers of communication between cities on the east and west sides of Inner Mongolia.

The "long" in Inner Mongolia is quite unfamiliar to the people in the province. When people from different cities in other provinces meet and recognize each other in other places, Inner Mongolians are pulling out their mobile phones to search for "compatriots" and have not heard much of it. Inner Mongolia city.

Although Inner Mongolia is still dominated by a temperate continental climate as a whole, it is really subdivided, including five microclimate zones from the cold temperate zone, the temperate zone to the warm temperate zone.

When people in the western part of Inner Mongolia welcome the arrival of spring, the people in the eastern part have already put on cotton jackets and trousers. There is a large temperature difference in one province, which is no smaller than the temperature difference between north and south China.

Even in terms of living habits, the differences between the east and west sides of Inner Mongolia have almost caught up with the differences between the north and the south of China. What rice and noodles are eaten, sweet and salty, and where the dialect speaks, it is a small problem.

In the stereotype of ordinary people, Inner Mongolians learn by riding horses, but in reality, many Inner Mongolians may only see the "horse" on TV in their lives, let alone riding.

It's hard to imagine that a person from another province can have such a big difference in taste, language, daily habits, etc.

Why is it not free shipping?

As "long" as Inner Mongolia, there is also the home address that the people of Inner Mongolia need to fill in when filling out the express order. How does this seemingly simple but not easy task make Inner Mongolians become couriers? The secret of this is that they all have their own unique ways. Inner Mongolia is a multi-ethnic province dominated by Mongolians. Looking at the 9 prefecture-level cities under the jurisdiction of Inner Mongolia, there are 5 cities with two characters in their names.

But when you write down districts and counties, the more and more words are written, the names of many districts are long and strange. The longest one is probably the "Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner" in Hulunbuir City. It is estimated that outsiders think about it. It's a bit difficult to read through.

There may have been many people who didn't understand why express delivery in Inner Mongolia could not be free shipping, but now many netizens say that it is no wonder that there is no free shipping, and I understand it today. There is a problem here: we all know that Inner Mongolia is an inland province with a relatively backward economic development level, but the population of Inner Mongolia accounts for more than half of the country's total population. Therefore, the development of the express industry is particularly important. In fact, it is not only for express delivery, but even for takeaways, it is quite troublesome in Inner Mongolia.

Before, an Inner Mongolian herdsman on the grassland had a whim and wanted to order takeout to eat crayfish. The result was that a crayfish was 25 yuan, but the delivery fee was as high as 584 yuan. Since the delivery distance was 202 kilometers, it took 4 hours for the person riding the crayfish to catch up. past.

The herdsman said: "I have lived in Inner Mongolia for many years. The prairie there is very good, but there are many problems to be solved. Because I know that the herdsmen in Inner Mongolia like to buy some fresh vegetables, such as spinach and celery. However, because the prices of these vegetables are relatively low and the quality is relatively good, many people choose to buy them. Therefore, not only outside the province, but also in Inner Mongolia, the delivery fee is not cheap.
