What was Chengdu, Sichuan called in ancient times?

1, Shuwangcheng. The ancient Shu period was called "Shuwangcheng", which sounded much more domineering than "Chengdu". But it is inevitable that people feel the meaning of "hill". At that time, it was said that the city wall was ten meters high, equivalent to three stories high. As you can imagine, the scale is not small.

2. Turtle City. It was called "Turtle City" in the Qin Dynasty, which was really a bit rustic. Not as elegant as Chengdu. It's called Turtle City. It is said that when the city was being built, a turtle walked around the city, and the builder of the city built it according to the footprint of the turtle. It was really strong when it was finished. It is called "Turtle City".

3. Jinguan City. It was called "Jinguancheng" in the Han Dynasty. Not vulgar, not dirty. It's just a little awkward to read. Because Chengdu brocade industry was developed at that time. Therefore, when you look at Tang poetry and Song poetry, you must know that you are talking about Chengdu when you mention "Jinjiang and Jincheng".

4. DMV. During the Shu and Han dynasties, it was called "Che Guancheng", which didn't sound atmospheric. In fact, the "vehicle management office" is next to the "gold management office" mentioned by Xiao Qiao. It was built later, in the east of Jinguan.

5. Los Angeles. Xiaoqiao was built in the Tang Dynasty, and I still like this name, which has a sense of historical vicissitudes. Later, the "Sheep and Horse City" was built outside Luocheng;

6. Furong City. During the post-Shu period, Mrs. Hua Rui mentioned it in an article by Xiao Qiao before. I don't know if you remember. That period was called "Furong City". Meng Changjun, the Emperor of the Later Shu Dynasty, loved hibiscus flowers, which made people plant hibiscus flowers all over the city wall, hence the name.

7. Xijing. The Ming dynasty was also a very domineering name, not tacky, but also very contemporary. However, this name has been used for a short time in history. When Zhang occupied Chengdu, Chengdu was renamed Xijing. It was later destroyed by the Qing Dynasty.

8. Yizhou. The name Yizhou has been used for the longest time in the whole history of Chengdu. From the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, it was changed many times. A historical name.
