Historical evolution of Puning urban area

The urban area is located in the east of the city center, at the northern foot of Da Nan Shan and upstream of Lianjiang River. In ancient times, there was sediment deposition in rivers and streams, and an alluvial beach was formed at the confluence of Hanma water, the source of Lianjiang River, and Sankeng water, the main tributary. Because the sand on the beach belongs to fluidity, it is named quicksand.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, quicksand has been the political, economic, cultural and educational center of Puning, and with the process of urbanization, various functions are gradually dispersed outside the main city to alleviate the pressure of the old city, so it is customary to call seven streets including the urban area "quicksand (city) area". In the fifty-first year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (17 12), a quicksand fence was established.

During the Republic of China, Liusha was the residence of the second district office in Puning County.
