Is there a city called Zhenjiang in China? In which province? Is it a prefecture-level city?
Zhenjiang is a famous city in the south of the Yangtze River with a history of more than 3,000 years. According to historical records, Zhenjiang has changed its name many times in history, and has used such place names as Yi, Gu Yang, Dantu, Wujin, Jingkou, South Xuzhou, Yanling and Runzhou.
This is the earliest name of Zhenjiang. According to 1954, the inscription on the bronze ware "Hou Yi Ya Gui" unearthed in Yandun Mountain, Dagang, Dantu County, Zhenjiang was a fief in the west, so it was named Yi.
It can be inferred that Zhenjiang has a history of more than 3000 years. Zhenjiang in Zhu Fang was the land of the State of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it was recorded by Zhu Fang in the book Spring and Autumn Period that Zhenjiang belonged to the State of Wu.
According to legend, the son of Yu was named after this. In fact, ancient Zhenjiang was named Zhu Fang, because it was located in the east of the motherland, overlooking the sea.
After the State of Wu in Guyang was destroyed by the State of Yue, the State of Yue was destroyed by the State of Chu, who renamed it Guyang. This is because in ancient times, many place names were named after geographical locations. In some places near mountains and rivers, the naming principle is often "the north of the water is Yang and the south of the mountain is Yang".
Zhenjiang is located in the south of Beigushan Mountain, hence the name Guyang. In the thirty-seventh year of Qin Shihuang (2lO BC), Dantu traveled south to Zhenjiang. Seeing the sinister situation in Zhenjiang, he ordered 3000 prisoners to chisel off Jingxian Mountain to break the king's anger and change Guyang into an apprentice.
Sun Quan in The Three Kingdoms of Wujin changed from Dantu to Wujin County in the third year after Jiahe ascended the throne (A.D. 234), which means that if the north wants to reject Cao Cao, it must make progress by force. In 209 AD, Sun Quan of Jingkou built a wall called Tieweng City on the present Gulou Mountain (under the Qianfeng Mountain in Gubei).
The ancient meaning "absolute height is Beijing", hence the name Beijing. This place was originally called Jingkouli, also called Xu Ling.
Because of its high riverside, it is also called Jingkou. Later generations also called the Yangtze River section around Jingkou Jingjiang as Jingjiang, and regarded Jingjiang as another name of Zhenjiang.
At the beginning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in South Xuzhou, due to the war in the north, many northern nobles and people moved across the river to the south, and the authorities set up "South Xuzhou and Southeast Sea County" in the south of the Yangtze River. In the second year of Emperor Wu of the Southern Song Dynasty, instead of the original counties, South Xuzhou was established in Jingkou. Since then, Zhenjiang has been called Nanxu.
Yanling581-618 AD, Dantu County was renamed Yanling County in the Sui Dynasty, and was named after Yanling Town at that time. In the 15th year of Emperor Wendi (AD 595), Runzhou was established in Yanling County, which was named after Runpu (river name, which has been submerged) in the east of the city.
There are two versions of the name Zhenjiang. First, because the northern part of Zhenjiang is relatively low-lying along the river bank, it was often destroyed by water in ancient times, so it was named after adding an auspicious word in front of the water name to show hope. Secondly, it came into being in 1 13, when Runzhou was changed to Zhenjiang in Song Dynasty (Song Huizong changed to peace for three years).
It is said that the rulers at that time thought that Zhenjiang had a superior geographical position, backed by mountains and rivers, and the situation was dangerous, so it was named Zhenjiang for guarding the river defense. The name Zhenjiang has been used for more than 800 years.
The evolution of the name of Zhenjiang reflects that Zhenjiang has always been an important political center and a battleground for military strategists. Zhenjiang is now a city under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province, with jurisdiction over Danyang, Dantu, Yangzhong, Jurong, Jingkou and Runzhou.
The total area is 3843 square kilometers, including 2l5 square kilometers in the urban area. Since 1985, Zhenjiang has been listed as an open coastal city, a key tourist city and a famous historical and cultural city in China.
From 65438 to 0987, Zhenjiang Port was officially opened to foreign ships, and the port management service facilities such as customs and commodity inspection were relatively complete. Since then, the name "Zhenjiang" has become even more famous, and it is known on five continents all over the world.
