First of all, the east is not inevitable. There are also many places that are not in the east, such as Hexi New Town in Nanjing and the High-tech Zone in Suzhou. It is not absolute.
Secondly, generally speaking, the east is the land of the rising sun, symbolizing prosperity, while the west is at risk of "returning to the west".
Third, China’s terrain is higher in the west and lower in the east. According to Feng Shui, where hundreds of rivers gather in a low place, it is easy to attract financial resources. This was one of the reasons why the Suzhou Singapore Industrial Park was located in the east of the city. It is said that when the site was selected, the terrain in the east of the city was low-lying and the soil quality was poor, so the construction cost was much higher than that in the west of the city. However, Singapore believes that the Feng Shui in the east is better and finally chose the east of the city.
Fourth, the economy of China's eastern coastal areas is more developed. The new urban area is in the east of the city, which is easier to access to the economically developed areas in the east. It is easy to attract eastern and overseas funds, with convenient personnel exchanges, convenient transportation, and good location advantages. .
