[Explanation] At 7:32 on June 20, the G52 train departed from Chongqing North Railway Station and arrived at Beijing West Railway Station after passing through Zhengzhou.

This train is the first train issued after the Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed railway line is fully operational.

　　The Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed railway starts from Zhengzhou City, Henan Province in the north and ends at Chongqing City in the south, passing through Henan, Hubei and Chongqing, with a total length of 1068 kilometers.

The Zhengzhou East to Xiangyang East Section and the Chongqing North to Wanzhou North Section of the Zhengzhou-Chongqing High-speed Railway have been opened before. This time, the Xiangyang East to Wanzhou North section has a total length of 434 kilometers.

　　After the Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed rail line is completed, it will take only 6 hours and 46 minutes from Chongqing to Beijing and 4 hours and 23 minutes to Zhengzhou.

In addition, the completion of the Zhengyu high-speed rail line has shortened the space-time distance between the central urban area of ​​Chongqing and several counties in northeastern Chongqing, bringing great convenience to people along the line.

　　Due to the lack of access to high-speed rail and railways, it is particularly inconvenient.

For example, if we go to Chongqing, we need to transfer to the high-speed rail from Wanzhou to get there faster. In the past, it took four or five hours to take the bus.

So, the high-speed rail is open, and we are all very convenient.

Then today, I am also in a very excited mood to experience it.

　　[Explanation] With the full operation of the Zhengyu high-speed rail line, the three counties of Chongqing Wushan, Fengjie and Yunyang located in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area have ended the history of no railroad access and entered the "high-speed rail era" in one fell swoop.

　　Fengjie County, Chongqing is located in the heart of the Three Gorges Reservoir area. It was named after Zhuge Liang, the famous minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, "cannot be taken away at the big festival".

Fengjie has many cultural tourism resources such as Baidi City, Qutang Gorge, Kuimen, Tiankeng and Ground Seam.

In history, famous poets Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Liu Yuxi, Su Shi, etc. have all visited Fengjie and left a lot of poems.

　　Fengjie is the starting point of tourism in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. The completion of the Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed railway will drive the development of local tourism.

　　The Zheng-Chongqing high-speed rail line runs through the whole line, which should be a major historical opportunity for the "Chinese Poetry City" Chongqing Fengjie, especially for our tourism development.

On the one hand, it will greatly shorten the travel time from Beijing, Shanghai, Zhengzhou, Chengdu and other parts of the country to Fengjie, so that you can arrive quickly and appreciate the magnificent landscape and profound culture of Fengjie.

　　[Explanation] Zhengyu high-speed rail is an important part of China's "eight vertical and eight horizontal" high-speed rail network, forming another fast passenger channel for going out in southwest China.

The completion of the Zhengzhou-Chongqing high-speed rail line will further improve the railway network structure in central China and southwest China and facilitate the travel of people along the line.
