Where is the west exit of "Take the west exit"?

The "Xikou" in "Xikou" refers to the north entrance of the Great Wall.

West entrance, in a narrow sense, refers to the entrance to the north of the Great Wall, including Shahukou in Shanxi, Fugukou in Shaanxi, and Dushikou in Hebei, which is the intersection point where people from northern Shanxi, Shaanxi and Hebei take the west entrance.

The west entrance is where merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi go out to trade with Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia, so the main people taking the west entrance include people from northern Shanxi, northern Shaanxi, and people from Hebei.

Houxikou generally refers to the places engaged in agriculture and commodity trading in Inner and Inner Mongolia north of the Great Wall, including Shenmukou in northern Shaanxi, Zhangjiakou in northern Hebei, and Guihua City.

The social value of "Going to the West Exit" is a bitter history of immigration and a history of hard work and entrepreneurship.

Group after group of immigrants left their homes and went north to the Mongolian area outside Kouou, worked hard to start a business, and developed the Inner Mongolia area.

With the process of "going to the west" immigration, the traditional single nomadic society in Inner Mongolia outside the mouth has evolved into a diversified society with dual banners and counties, and both pastoralism and farming.

In this evolution process, Shanxi immigrants, as the main immigrants, have made great contributions.

Since Shanxi immigrants account for the vast majority of immigrants, the local immigrant culture is more characteristic of Jin culture, which can also be said to be the expansion of Jin culture in this region.

The flow of population has promoted the spread of culture, and the spread of culture has narrowed the distance between regions and enhanced their sense of identity.

The "West Exit" immigration wave has greatly promoted exchanges between the central and western regions of Inner Mongolia and the mainland, further enhanced the national feelings between Mongolia and Han, and has had a certain positive impact on the prosperity and stability of our multi-ethnic country.
