Historical evolution

According to the old records, the land of Sanshui belonged to Nanhai County in Qin Dynasty. From the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it belonged to Panyu and Sihui counties. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the uprising of the peasants in the middle land was rampant. Sanshui area was far away from the county government, and the government was unable to reach it. It became a "region of conflict and difficulty". In order to appease the remote areas and benefit the rule, the Ming Dynasty divided Nanhai County into 34 maps in the fifth year of Jiajing (1526) and Gaoyao County into new counties under Guangzhou government in the 17th map. Because the river mouth, where the county is located, controls the confluence of the west, North and Suijiang rivers, the name of the county is Sanshui, which means "the confluence of the three rivers";
