Source of garden name

The name of Zhaoyang park comes from the "Marquis state of Zhaoyang" in Shaodong City, Hunan Province

. In Ad 5, Emperor Ping of the Western Han Dynasty established the Marquis state of Zhaoyang in the east of Zhaoling county (today's Shaoyang City), and granted the title of marquis Liu Shang, son of Liu Ci, king of Changsha. The state of Hou set up the city in today's village of huangpiqiao Township, Shaodong city. In AD 8, because Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, the Marquis was removed. At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the former Marquis state of Zhaoyang was changed to Zhaoyang county. In 280 ad, after the establishment of Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan changed Zhaoyang county to Shaoyang County to avoid the taboo of his father Sima Zhao. It was not until 590 ad that the county seat of Shaoyang County was moved from Zhaoyang Marquis city to Shaoyang City. More than two thousand years later, the back of the once fascinating city of marquis is gradually disappearing. The city of marquis in Zhaoyang, which was first built in huangpiqiao Township, has enjoyed the reputation of power and prosperous center for hundreds of years as the seat of marquis and later county. Hundreds of years of prosperity, style and authority have enriched the land of Huangpi bridge with mystery and aura. Hundreds of years of political, commercial, cultural and educational centers have accumulated a profound and splendid Chinese civilization among the people of Huangpi bridge in all dynasties
