Chapter 425: Weser River

The Weser is the mother river of Bremen, which runs through the city from Bremen, the old town of Bremen is the boundary between the middle and lower reaches of the Weser River, and the channel from the port area of the city of Bremen is a dredging channel for ocean vessels.

Bremerhaven is located at the mouth of the Weser River, and the stretch of the river from Bremerhaven to the open sea is called the Outer Weser River.

"The inner port of Bremen and the outer port of Bremenhaven are collectively known as the combined port of Bremen in German, and the inner port of Bremen is about 65 nautical miles from the mouth of the Weser River, and ships with a draft of up to 10.7 meters can enter and leave the port with a tidal current," says Robin. ”

The port was the first port in Germany to start handling containers, but with the continuous expansion of ocean-going container ships, the function of container transshipment has been almost entirely assumed by the sister port of Bremerhaven.

"I have introduced to you before, the port city of Bremen, the geographical location of the port city is very important, the water transportation is convenient, and the goods can be easily transported from the waterway!"

"It is also easy for a port city to develop its economy, and it is easy for trade to develop, and a place has a good development of trade and a prosperous economy!"

The Inner Port of Bremen handles mostly bulk and breakbulk cargo, while serving the city's well-developed port-based industry, with only a small proportion of the automotive and container business.

The wharf operation area of the Inner Port of Bremen is scattered on both sides of the Weser River, and the core port area is the industrial port and the port of Neusdadt, and the main berths are still very deep, equipped with a complete range of lifting and handling equipment such as container bridge cranes, portal cranes, and ro-ro platforms.

Robin took everyone to visit, which made Qu Lihua have a deeper feeling, watching the busy ships transporting goods in the port, one after another, all the time busy.

There are river barge connections between the inner port of Bremen and the outer port of Bremerhaven and the river ports in the middle and upper reaches of the Weser River, as well as ocean bulk carrier routes between major ports in China.

"It's still very prosperous here, the waterway transportation is very developed, the development of trade between port cities is very easy, it's also very good to live here, the environment is very good, there are many goods, people can choose according to their needs!"

Qu Lihua nodded, "Yes, Mr. Robin, we have also seen that this place is indeed very powerful, after hundreds of years of development, the port city has indeed matured, their advantages are worth learning from, and their experience is also worth learning!"

Meng Wenjie said: "There are still many cities near the sea in Germany, and there are also many port cities, Robin has taken us to many places before, and Bremen is still very distinctive, and it also leaves a deep impression on us." ”

"Mr. Robin, you can tell us again that the railway transportation in Bremen, in addition to water transportation, is still very convenient for railway transportation in Bremen. ”

The Vigsak railway line to the Louhr area, Hanover, Oldenburg, Hamburg, Bremenhaven and Bremen intersects at Bremen Railway Station.

"Railways are also very important, we have been to many cities before, developed cities water, land and air, are very well developed, a region wants to develop the economy, it is necessary to develop transportation, traffic development is good, the economy is easy to develop, if the traffic is difficult, the road is not passable, the goods can not be transported, the flow of people can not flow, the economy can not develop, so want to build roads, build roads, repair railways, develop steamship water transport, develop aviation, are complementary to each other. ”

There are three long-distance railway lines passing through Bremen train station: the Bremen-Munich line, the Hamburg-Cologne line and the Oldenburg-Leipzig line.

The Bremen railway station is a historicist-style building with four reliefs symbolizing industry, trade, railways and shipping on the faΓ§ade, as well as the coats of arms of Cologne, Hannover and Hamburg, as well as the city of Bremen itself.

"The history here is still very long, the charm of history here is symbolized by statues, this is a very distinctive aspect of Bremen, come here to take a look, you can remember the history here, after hundreds of years of development, the railway has the current scale, it is not easy, the railway can also transport goods, inland city freight, very convenient. ”

The roof of the railway station is copper-roofed, which turns gray first and then green over time due to chemical reactions, and the mosaic frescoes on the walls of the waiting hall reflecting tobacco cultivation and trade are preserved in 1951 as advertisements made by the Bremen Tobacco Company.

"It's really not easy to preserve, many things that were old before are difficult to preserve, and the preservation also represents the history of this place, giving it a cultural charm and is very commemorative. ”

The Bremen bus line is also good, covering the area of the lower reaches of the Weser River basin, the traffic in the city is still very convenient, and 4 regional light rail lines connecting Bremen and the surrounding cities have been opened, which is also convenient for the surrounding people, people travel is still very convenient, the fare is also more down-to-earth, many people choose to take the trip, and the service is still OK.

There are also special cycle paths in parks, green spaces and embankments, from Hannover Minden to the North Sea via Bremen, the Weser Cycle Path, and from Bremen to Hamburg, all of which are part of Germany's extensive network of long-distance cycle paths.

Qu Lihua came here to see, I do think that the bicycle path here is well repaired, Germans not only like to drive famous cars, but also like to ride bicycles, like sports, people need to exercise, can not always drive, do not exercise, then the body will get fatter and fatter, many young holidays, like to come out to ride a bicycle.

Their concepts are different from Chinese, Chinese feel that riding a bicycle has no face, they like luxury cars, and they feel arrogant when they drive luxury cars.

And the Germans are still very exercise-oriented, and if you go out on a bicycle, people won't look down on you.

This makes Qu Lihua feel very good, "We have a popular saying in the past few years, we would rather cry while sitting in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle, alas, this sentence makes people feel very sad, how many people can really afford to buy a BMW?"

"Most people still ride bicycles, but when they ride bicycles, they feel very poor, have no money, and will be looked down upon, and when others drive a BMW and come to grab a girlfriend with you, you will feel very helpless and cruel!"

"When can I ride a bicycle and feel very comfortable and honored, that is the progress of society!"

Robin said: "Riding a bicycle in Germany, no one laughs at you, because German cars are not expensive, even if you are a working class, you can buy a car, although it is not a famous car, but ordinary cars can still be bought, so it is not uncommon to have a car in Germany, exercise, ride a bicycle in the bicycle driving area, don't care about other people's eyes, exercise well, physical health is the most important thing!"
