Place name source

The name of "Guiyang" was earlier seen in the Ming Dynasty (Hongzhi) new records of Guizhou tujing: the county was named after the sun of Guishan. Guiyang gets its name because it is to the south of Guishan. Guiyang is famous for its rich bamboo in ancient times, so the homonym "Zhu" of "bamboo" is used as the abbreviation of Guiyang.

It is said that the climate of Guiyang is rainy all the year round, and there is a folk saying that "there is no sunny day for three days". Guiyang is named after "yanggui". On the other hand, the place name here comes from Guishan, because Shannan is Yang, so it is named Guiyang.

Guiyang's name originates from Guishan mountain, which is also called guirenfeng. Although Guiyang is named after the sun of Guishan mountain, the location of Guishan mountain has always been controversial. New records of Guizhou tujing published in 1501, the 14th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty, records: "the county is in the Yang of Guishan, so it's named Guiyang", "Guishan is in the North Erli of Zhicheng", "Baiya mountain is at the foot of Guishan", "Baiya mountain is in the North Erli of Zhicheng". According to the historical records of places of interest, "there is a noble mountain in Erli of the north of the city, a noble peak passing by the Shu Road." In 1692, Guizhou Tongzhi indicated that Guishan was five li to the north of the city, and the corresponding map also indicated that Guishan was outside the northeast of Guiyang City, that is, Yuma mountain in Yangliujing to the north of the tea shop. In 1697, the new supplement to the general records of Kangxi in Guizhou recorded that Guishan was five li north of the city. "Guiyang local geography" records: "the south of Fenghuang mountain, the north of tea shop, a sharp peak inserted into the sky, called Guishan." "Guiyang Fu Zhi" said: "to the city 12 Li, Ruifeng Jiyi, Xiu intercalation layer night, according to legend, Guizhou got its name. There are caves in the mountainside and ninety-nine springs at the foot. "
