The Origin of City Names in Zhejiang Province

1. Hangzhou

Hangzhou has a long history, which has been more than 2,200 years since the county was established in Qin Dynasty. Hangzhou is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization. As early as more than 4,700 years ago, human beings thrived here and produced Liangzhu culture called the dawn of civilization.

Hangzhou was once the capital of Wu Yue State in the Southern Song Dynasty in the Five Dynasties and one of the seven ancient capitals in China. Hangzhou was called Qiantang in ancient times. In the ninth year of Emperor Yangdi (589), Tangxian County was abolished, and the name of Hangzhou appeared for the first time in history. In the third year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1 129), Emperor Gaozong crossed the river to Hangzhou and was promoted to be the prefect of Lin 'an. In the eighth year of Shaoxing (1 138), Lin 'an was officially established as the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, which lasted for more than 40 years. In the first year of the Republic of China (19 12), Qiantang County, Renhe County and Hangxian County were juxtaposed. In the 16th year of the Republic of China (1927), Hangzhou was established as the county seat and the city. 1The liberation of Hangzhou on May 3, 949 opened a new historical chapter in the development of Hangzhou.

2. Ningbo

The history of Ningbo can be traced back to the Xia Dynasty over two thousand years BC. According to "Chronicle", "There is a corydalis kingdom in summer, named after the Red Corydalis Mountain, and then the city is called Yin." There are two places in Jinchi, one is Tiantong and Baochong in Yinxian, and the other is Fenghua. This is the original origin of the name "Yin".

After Qin Shihuang unified China, he abolished the enfeoffment system, set up the county system, and formally established three counties, namely Yin, Shaanxi and Huiji. It is said that many overseas people came to Ningbo to collect goods and trade, so they called the nearby mountain Zhishan (near today's Wang Yu Temple) and established Zhixian County here. Straight is the combination of the word "trade city", which means a place for trade. During the Han dynasty, the scope of these three counties was roughly as follows: Yinxian county included the present urban area, the southwest suburb of Fenghua and the southeast area, and the county was ruled by Fenghua Baidu; Yixian county includes the place east of jiangdong district and north of Shanshan, and the county is governed in Shanshan; The decree covers the area from Jiangbei to Cixi, and the county government is near Chengshandu, Zhashan Township, Jiangbei District. From the Han Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the architecture and scope changed little.

During the Sui Dynasty, both Yin and Zhi counties were compiled into chapters, and the county was located in Xiaoxi (now Yinjiang Bridge in Yin County). During the Wude period of Tang Dynasty, the sentence was changed to Yinzhou, and it was later renamed as the magistrate of a county. Until the establishment of the state government in the 26th year of Kaiyuan in the Tang Dynasty (AD 738). Because there is Siming Mountain nearby, it is called Mingzhou. Counties Fenzhi, Fenghua, Cixi and Wengshan (now Dinghai County) belong to Mingzhou. State governance began in Xixi and then moved to Sanjiangkou. During the Yuanhe period, Wanghai Town was set up in the east of Jixian County. During the Five Dynasties, the prefectures and counties were unified, and the magistrate of a county was renamed Yin County, Wanghai Town was renamed Wanghai County, and later Dinghai County (now Zhenhai County), and Xiangshan was also placed under Mingzhou. In the sixth year of Xining in the Northern Song Dynasty (AD 1073), Guochang County (now Dinghai County) was established. In this way, the scope of Mingzhou roughly includes Yin, Ci, Zhen, Feng, Xiang and Ding counties in Ningbo. Mingzhou was an important foreign trade port in China during the Tang and Song Dynasties. There is a record in Siming Zhi that "overseas countries are mixed, and Jia Bo handed it over". 1974 The exquisite Tang porcelain unearthed from He Yi Road was exported through Ningbo Port. In the Tang Dynasty, a special foreign trade management organization, the Municipal Shipping Department, was established in Mingzhou. At that time, Japan, North Korea and some Southeast Asian countries came ashore from Mingzhou to pay tribute and trade. In the Song Dynasty, Mingzhou, Quanzhou and Guangzhou were also called the three major foreign trade ports in China, and they were also important bases for China to build seagoing vessels, which could accommodate 500 to 600 people.

Mingzhou was changed to qingyuan prefecture in the Southern Song Dynasty and Qingyuan Road in the Yuan Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang pacified Fang Guozhen, it was changed to the state capital of the Ming Dynasty, because "Qingyuan" means to celebrate the Yuan Dynasty. In the 14th year of Hongwu (A.D. 138 1), the word "Ming" in Mingzhou was the same as the name of the Ming Dynasty, so it was changed to Ningbo Prefecture. Since Zhenhai County was also called Dinghai County at that time, Mingzhou was very close to Zhenhai, meaning "Dinghai Boning". This is why "Ningbo" got its name.

3. Wenzhou

Wenzhou was called Ouyue in ancient times. In the late Neolithic period five or six thousand years ago, there were ancestors working and living here. During the Warring States period, it belonged to Yue State. After Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, he set up Minzhong County. In the third year, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty made Gou Jian, a descendant of King Yue, the king of the East China Sea, with Dong 'ou as its capital, commonly known as Dong 'ou King. Yongning County was established in the third year of Emperor Shun of Han Dynasty, Yongjia County was established in the first year of Taining in East Jin Mingdi, and Tang Gaozong was established in the second year of Shangyuan. It is named Wenzhou because of its warm climate.

4. Shaoxing

The origin of "Shaoxing": Shaoxing was called Yue and Huiji in ancient times. It has the Du Yue era of Zhejiang's largest city and the Juniper era of 40 "big cities" in China. Zhao Gou, the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty, was forced by the Jin people to run around Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In 1 13 1 year, I fled to Shaoxing (then Yuezhou) and felt in a good mood, and my country was about to be recovered. So I have a saying, "Shaozuo Revival", renamed Shaoxing, Yuezhou became Shaoxing City.

5. Huzhou

Huzhou-the continent of Taihu Lake

6. Jiaxing

During the Spring and Autumn Period, this place was called Changshui, also known as Plum Blossom, and wuyue and China competed in this situation. During the Warring States period, it was incorporated into the territory of Chu. Qin is located in Jixian County and Haiyan County, belonging to Huiji County. During the Three Kingdoms period, Wu was located in the east of the Yangtze River. According to analysis, the southern border of the county and the western border of Haiyan County were located in Yan Guan County. In the third year of Wu Huanglong (23 1), "wild rice is born with fists". Sun Quan, Emperor Wu of the Qing Dynasty, thought it was auspicious, so he changed from boxing to harmony. At the end of Jin Dynasty, in the fifth year of Emperor Gaozu Tianfu (940), at the invitation of Qian Yuansui, King of Wu Yue, Xiuzhou was established in Jiaxing, leading four counties of Jiaxing, Haiyan, Huating and Chongde. Xiuzhou was changed to Jiahe County in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the first year of Qingyuan in Ningzong County in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 195), the county was promoted to a prefecture and later changed to Jiaxing Army. In the fifth year of Xuande in Ming Dynasty (1430), xiushui county was in the northwest of Jiaxing County, and Jiashan County was in the northeast. Analysis of Haiyan County in Pinghu County: Analysis of Chongde County Chongde County is located in Tongxiang County, and Jiaxing Prefecture has seven counties under its jurisdiction, which is called one government and seven counties. In the tenth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1860), the Taiping Army conquered Jiaxing and established the Imperial Palace as the local military and political leading body. After the mid-Qing Dynasty, Jiaxing's economy and urban appearance declined day by day due to imperialist plunder and feudal exploitation. 1911165438+1On October 7th, the Revolution Party of 1911 regained Jiaxing and established its military and political branch. In the early years of the Republic of China, the county was abandoned and renamed Jiahe County, and later Jiaxing County.

7. Jinhua

Jinhua belonged to Yue State in the Spring and Autumn Period. Qin and Han Dynasties were Wu Shangjun, which belonged to Huiji County. In the first year of Wu Baoding in the Three Kingdoms (266), the county was named Dongyang, which was named after the county was in the east of Weihe River and the grandson of Changshan Mountain. Since then, Jinhua has established a county government. The name "Golden Flower" comes from Jin Huashan, which is the place where the north and the south confront each other outside the city.

8. Quzhou

"Quzhou" first appeared as the name of a national administrative region, and it didn't become a proper name until the Yuan Dynasty. In the fourth year of Tang Wude, Li Zitong ruled Ping and Zhou in Xin 'an County, and implemented the state-led county system. State leaders are Principal, Ding Yang and Xujiang counties. "Qu" is the proper name of the state where Xin 'an is located; "State" is a common name for administrative level. The country is based on the word "Qu".

Quzhou is named after the "Sanqu Mountain" in Changshan today. According to historical records, in the eighth year of Tang Wude (AD 625), Xianggong Weichi Gong, Hubei Province, was newly expanded (now Quzhou City). The scale of the new city has begun to take shape, and it has won the appreciation of the current dynasty, which led him to report the domain name of the new city. A martial artist pondered the name of the new city. For a while, he lost his mind. Later, I heard that there is a Sanqu Mountain in Xin 'an, which is a world-famous scenic spot with beautiful scenery. I am overjoyed and gladly named Xin 'an Quzhou.

One is named after Lu Tong Mitsukoshi (Fujian, Yangyue and wuyue). I think the latter is more credible. First of all, it analyzes the meaning of the word "Qu" from the perspective of place names, and Er Ya Shi Gong says that "four reaches means Qu". Tian Wen of Chu Ci means nine times. As a Qu, Tai is also called "Qu Zhou". Geographically, overlooking Quzhou, Sichuan and land communicate in all directions, connecting Europe and Fujian in the south and Shanghai and Hangzhou in the north. Qujiang River joins Jiangshan Port, Changshan Port and Wuxi River to form a developed land and water transportation network. In ancient times, when land and water transportation dominated, Sanshui was crowned as "three major passages". In this regard, Daming Unified Academy concluded: "The land of Quzhou is connected by three roads."

It can be concluded that "Quzhou" is undoubtedly named after traffic. In some documents, it is misleading to name a person in Quzhou as "Sanqu Mountain".

As an alias of Quzhou, the name "Sanqu" appeared and was widely used. A large number of documents prove that it is the extension of the word "Qu" after four years of martial arts in the Tang Dynasty. Guan Zi's Light and Heavy A Piece says "Wen Zi Sanqu", and the word "Sanqu" has long existed in the old saying. Obviously, "Ququ" is not the abbreviation of "Sanqu". With the development of economy, the progress of the times and the civilization of human beings, the cultural connotation of the name "Quzhou" will become richer and wider.

9. Taizhou

Taizhou has a long history, and its ancestors thrived five thousand years ago. Huipu Township was established by Qin Shihuang, Huipu County was established in the second year of the Western Han Dynasty (the first 85 years), Linhai County was established in the second year of Wu Taiping in the Three Kingdoms (257 years), and Haizhou was called in the fourth year of Tang Wude (62 1 year). Taizhou was renamed in the following year, named after Tiantai Mountain in China, and the name of Taizhou began.

The name of Tiantai Mountain also has its origin. This mountain is in the west of Tiantai County, at the northeast end of Xianxialing Mountains. The real name of this town is Tingshan, also known as Ladder Mountain, or Yue Ling, or Taiyue. The mountains are steep, there are pale rocks in the southwest, four Ming Jinhua in the northwest, and the east coast is winding, like the edge of clothes. It is like a lotus covered with eight leaves, shaped like a mountain, with eight streams and eight stages, such as going on, going on and off, just like a three-star platform. Ten roads are called "the top to three mornings", so they are called Tiantai. One said "big and small platforms". According to Tao Hongjing's "True Letters Patent": "It is eighteen thousand feet high and travels eight hundred miles a week. There are eight mountains, all of which are the same. " Gu's Geography also said: "Tiantai Mountain is a cypress, which is the crown of all mountains."

In a word, Taizhou is named after Tiantai Mountain, and Tiantai Mountain is named after Shangying Tai Su. The name of Taizhou is related to Tai Su Party.

10. Lishui

Lishui county, formerly known as Cangshan, is named Cangshan because it is located at the west foot of Cangshan. In order to avoid the taboo of Tang Dezong Shili (kuo), the county name was changed to Lishui County. There is no unified view on why the county name is called "Lishui". One theory is that the good stream flowing through Lishui was called evil stream in ancient times, and it was renamed Lishui in Sui Dynasty, so Lishui was named as the county name. Another way of saying this is that the name of Lishui comes from Liyangkeng, which is also called Lishui, so Lishui is the county name. In short, both of these statements are related to water. 1986 With the approval of the provincial government, Lishui County was renamed Lishui City. In 2000, Lishui District was revoked with the approval of the State Council and upgraded to Lishui City, and the original Lishui City was renamed as Liandu. In the ninth year of Sui Dynasty (AD 589), Lishui was formally established as a state. Because the ancients often used the stars in the sky to refer to counties, and Lishui area is located in Shaowei constellation, which has four stars, and the southernmost star is named Chu Shi Star, so Chuzhou is the state name. According to the Records of Places of Interest in the Ming Dynasty, "In the ninth year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty, Saturn was located in Siju, so it was located in Suzhou. However, in history, the name of Chuzhou has been changed many times, such as Chuzhou and Jinyun County, and it was changed back to Chuzhou in the 14th year of the Tang Dynasty (AD 779) and remained in use until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

1 1. Zhoushan

The name "Zhoushan" is the name of a hill before the county government. Yuan Dade's "Changguozhou Atlas" recorded this; "Zhoushan is in the south of the state, the mountain wing is like a pillow sea, and the boats gather, so it is named Zhoushan." After the "sea ban", Zhoushan Islands were deserted, and only 547 families were allowed to stay in Zhoushan Island because of the request of Xiangxian Kingdom. Because these left-behind islanders mainly live near the old county town, the name of Boating Mountain before settlement gradually evolved into the name of a small town on Zhoushan Island, and then with the relaxation of the "sea ban" and the expansion of their residence, it developed into the name of Zhoushan Island and even Zhoushan Islands. When Hu Zongxian wrote On Zhoushan in Jiajing period, the place name of Zhoushan was basically the same as it is now.
