Overview of Changsha



Changsha is located in the northeast of Hunan province, and on the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and lower reaches of the Xiang River.

With superior geographical location in the economic sense, Changsha is one of the major cities under the Rising of Central China Strategy. Changsha is not only a transportation hub for the inland to go to Guangdong, Guangxi and coastal areas, but also a conjuncture of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and South China Economic Circle, which has provided favorable conditions for it to conduct close economic cooperation with these two major economic regions. Over these years, Changsha has become a good supporter for development of areas along the coast and rivers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and a leader for development of the western China. As one of the major base cities in Hunan province exporting capital, products, technology, information and human resources to southwestern China, Guangdong and Hong Kong, Changsha is now playing a pivotal role in China’s economic strategy thanks to its role as a link between the north and the south, the west and the east.

Well-developed communication and transportation infrastructure has created a solid basis and favorable conditions for Changsha’s efforts to develop service outsourcing.
