Historical evolution

Tianjin, one of the four municipalities directly under the central government in China, is also the largest open city and industrial and commercial city in northern China. Tianjin is abbreviated as "Jin", which means the ferry passed by the emperor, also known as "Jingu" and "Jinmen".

Tianjin was originally located in the ocean. More than 4000 years ago, under the action of the Yellow River sediment, Tianjin gradually exposed the sea floor and formed an alluvial plain. The ancient Yellow river changed its course three times and entered the sea near Tianjin. It entered the sea near Ninghe District 3000 years ago, near Huanghua County in the Western Han Dynasty, and in the southern suburbs of Tianjin in the Northern Song Dynasty. In the Jin Dynasty, the Yellow River moved southward, seizing the Huaihe River into the sea, and Tianjin's coastline was fixed.

In the Shang and Zhou dynasties, Tianjin was inhabited by human beings, but as a city, it formed later. With the opening of the Grand Canal in the Sui Dynasty, Tianjin, located in the north of the canal and convenient for river and sea transportation, became more and more important. The canal and the "end of the five rivers" (today's Haihe River) intersected at the Sancha estuary in the urban area, and Tianjin was named "Sanhui Haikou" in the history books. After the middle of the Tang Dynasty, Tianjin became a land and water wharf for transporting grain and silk from the south to the north.

Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty set up salt officials in Wuqing.

In the Sui Dynasty, after the construction of the Beijing Hangzhou Grand Canal, at the intersection of the south canal and the North Canal (today's Sancha estuary of Jingang bridge), Sanhui Haikou is the earliest birthplace of Tianjin.

In the Tang Dynasty, a salt farm was set up in Lutai and a salt storehouse was set up in Baodi.

In the Liao Dynasty, a "salt court" was set up in Wuqing to manage salt affairs.

In the third year of yuanyanyou (1316), "Zhigu was changed into Haijin town", which became the transport center of grain transportation. Set up Dazhigu salt transportation department to manage the production and marketing of salt.

In the second year of Jianwen of Ming Dynasty (1400), Zhu Di, king of Yan, crossed the Grand Canal and went south to fight for the throne. After Zhu Di became emperor, in order to commemorate the "battle of Jingnan", he changed the name of this place to Tianjin on November 21, 1404 (December 23, 1404). As a military important place, in the area of xiaozhigu, southwest of the sanchahekou, Tianjin began to build a city and set up a guard, which opened a new page of Tianjin's urban development. After that, Tianjin left back and Tianjin right back were added.

In 1652, Tianjin Wei, Tianjin left Wei and Tianjin right Wei were merged into Tianjin Wei, and civil administration, salt transportation, taxation and military were established. In 1725, Tianjin Wei was promoted to Tianjin state. Yongzheng nine years (1731) promoted Tianjin Prefecture as Tianjin Prefecture, under the jurisdiction of six counties and one Prefecture.
