The History and Culture of Hu Fen Economic Development Zone in Wujiang, Jiangsu Province

As one of the birthplaces of Wu culture, culture can be traced back to 2500 years ago. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hu Fen was the boundary river of wuyue, and it was a battleground for military strategists, leaving behind the eternal swan song of "crossing the ancient beach with Xu Tan". LULU and Lili, two original ancient towns, can be found at any time. Flowing stone bridges, elegant pavilions, colorful ancient houses and the culture spread through the ages reverberate in this land.

Hufen Lake culture embodies the characteristics of Jiangnan water town. Simple folk songs are an important branch of folk songs, which reproduce the connotation of Wu culture. Lili was once the activity center of Nanshe poets, and many Nanshe poems were born here. Culture has thrived in this "water town" and many wonderful chapters have been born.

Where culture has accumulated since ancient times, natural talents have come forth in large numbers. Ancient celebrities such as Zhang Daqian, a famous writer in the Western Jin Dynasty, a water conservancy expert in the Ming Dynasty, Lu Yao, the governor of the Qing Dynasty, and the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and modern representatives such as Liu Yazi, a democratic fighter and patriotic poet, and Ni, an international judge, are all outstanding.
