Where is the license plate with 'Zhe G' from?
2 Answers
Zhe G is the license plate for Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province. Zhe A represents Hangzhou, Zhe B represents Ningbo, Zhe C represents Wenzhou, Zhe D represents Shaoxing, Zhe E represents Huzhou, Zhe F represents Jiaxing, Zhe G represents Jinhua, Zhe H represents Quzhou, Zhe J represents Taizhou, Zhe K represents Lishui, and Zhe L represents Zhoushan. Here is some information about license plates: 1. The first Chinese character on a license plate is the abbreviation of the province or municipality directly under the central government, and the letter following the first character represents the city or district. 2. A license plate is a permit for a vehicle to legally drive on the road. 3. There are two types of license plates for vehicles: one is a temporary license plate, and the other is a formal license plate. 4. Temporary license plates must be affixed to the front and rear windshields as required; formal license plates must be fixed to the front and rear of the vehicle body as required.
I worked in Jinhua for several years before, and most of the vehicles on the road had ZheG license plates. This letter represents the Jinhua area, including the city proper and surrounding regions like Yiwu, Dongyang, and Yongkang. Most cars in central Zhejiang carry this letter on their plates, and they’re especially common near the Yiwu International Trade Market. Speaking of which, a friend once visited me in Yiwu and noticed that out-of-town drivers often get confused about where ZheG plates are from, thinking they’re somewhere near Hangzhou. In reality, Jinhua is about a two-hour drive from Hangzhou on the highway and serves as a transportation hub in central Zhejiang—that’s how the license plate divisions were determined.
