Hengshan District, Jixi

Hengshan area was under the jurisdiction of Mishan Prefecture in the late Qing Dynasty. After the founding of the Republic of China, in early 1916, Yuan Dazhang, a businessman from Fengtian, raised 13 shareholders to raise funds to build the Mishi coal mine in Beishan of huangnihezi for seasonal local mining. Later, due to the transfer of tax arrears, it was renamed Yubian coal mine, which was the first coal mine in the development history of Jixi coalfield. Under the jurisdiction of Mishan county. After the fall of Northeast China, the Japanese invaders forced human shares to run Yubian coal mine. In 1938, they annexed Chinese shares and renamed it Jixi coal mine. Hengshan street was set up here, which was under the jurisdiction of Jining County in September 1941. After the victory of the Anti Japanese war in 1945, Hengshan District was set up in May 1946 and changed to the Fourth District of Jixi County in July 1950. In May 1956, Hengshan Town was set up instead of township. In March 1957, Hengshan Town was abolished and Hengshan District was officially established under the jurisdiction of Jixi City. There is a famous festival in Hengshan District - offering sacrifices to the moon god: every year on the 15th of the first month, we worship the moon god. Around December, it's hunting season. The moon points out where the prey is at night. In order to pray for God's blessing, they hunt more and get more food, especially in winter, they formed the custom of sacrificing the moon.
