What were the names of Taiyuan in ancient times?

Taiyuan first belonged to Bei Tang and was called Jinyang in 497 BC. Located in today's Gucheng camp, Taiyuan County in Qin Dynasty, it was the secretariat of Bingzhou in Hanwu period. Taiyuan still used Bingzhou until 979 AD. In the Song Dynasty, Jinyang City was destroyed and Jincheng was leveled, just in the area of Malianying, now Beiying.

In earlier years, Taiyuan and Jinyang could not be used as titles, but could only be changed to Jinzhou military. 77 years later, Taiyuan, Yangqu and Hezhou moved to Taiyuan, and Taiyuan was called Yangqu County from now on.

1000 years ago, Yangqu County is now Taiyuan, and Taiyuan County is now Jinyuan District! So there is a saying that Jinyang was Taiyuan before the Song Dynasty and Chengyang was Taiyuan after the Song Dynasty!

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty called it the land of the Dragon Thousand, Gao Huan and his son called it the overlord of the Northern Dynasties, Lee and his son called it the land of Longxing, the capital of the northern Tang Dynasty, and Song called it the key to the Dragon City in the Central Plains. This name was also the honorific title of Jinyang in Song Dynasty!

Taiyuan is nicknamed "Jinyang" and "Bingzhou".

Jinyang, "Notes on Water Classics and Jinshui Notes" says that "the city is in the sun of Jinshui, so it is called Jinyang". Its evolution has been described in detail before, from Zhao Jian to the peak of Sui and Tang Dynasties, which lasted for 65,438+05 centuries. Until the early Song Dynasty, it was ruled by Taiyuan County and Taiyuan Prefecture for a long time, and even called "Taiyuan".

It is the predecessor of the newly-built Taiyuan in Tang Ming Town, just across the river from the original Jinyang Taiyuan House. People naturally take Jinyang as another name for Taiyuan. Today, Jinyang Fort, Jinyang Lake and Jinyang Hotel in Taiyuan are all taken from the meaning of Yangcheng in Kuching.

Geography of the Book of Jin says that "if the clouds meet, they are between the two valleys".

From the Han and Wei Dynasties to the Tang and Song Dynasties, the country merged along the ancient system for a long time; Uneven jurisdiction in the past dynasties gradually tightened to the middle reaches of Fenhe River, which governed Jinyang Taiyuan House. When the organizational system of Bingzhou was revoked, it was still customarily called "Bingzhou".
