Henan
is a province of the People's Republic of China, located in the central part of
the country. Its one-character abbreviation is Yu, a Han Dynasty state (zhou)
that included parts of Henan. Although the name of the province means
"south of the river", approximately a quarter of the province lies
north of the Yellow River, north of the capitol city, Zhengzhou.
Henan
is the 5th largest provincial economy of China and the largest among inland
provinces. However, per capita GDP is low compared to other eastern and central
provinces, and Henan is considered to be one of the less developed areas in
China. The economy continues to depend on its dwindling aluminum and coal
reserves, as well as agriculture, heavy industry, tourism, and retail.
High-tech industry and service sector are developing very fast and is
concentrated around Zhengzhou and Luoyang, where Apple’s iPhone was
manufactured in the factory of Foxconn.
