Characteristics and Influences of Cities in Northwest China

In modern time the cities in Northwest China developed comparatively slowly: apparent feudal military and political features; small quantity and scale; simple function; under-development in terms of industry, culture and education. Due to such underdevelopment, their influence upon the surrounding area is quite weak, and the underdevelopment of the surrounding area held back the urban development; it is hard to form healthy interaction and the economy of the whole area is lagged behind.
