Historical evolution

In Yuan Dynasty, Liujiagang was transformed into a port for transporting grain to the sea. In the Ming Dynasty, the inspection department was set up, and the zhenhaiwei was set up in Tianfei palace, commonly known as Tianfei town.

At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, Liuhe new town was renamed Liuhe Town. At the end of Qianlong period, the river mouth of Liuhekou was silted up and the big ships could not enter it. So a new town was built about 2.5 kilometers east of the town.
