According to Han Chan Ting Kao, at the end of the Warring States period, the states of Ba and Shu faced each other and often fought. Shu led the current Yanting area, which is located at the boundary between Ba and Shu. Therefore, a pavilion was set up here, named Chan ting.

In the first year of the reign of emperor Yixi of Jin'an (AD 405), Wan'an county was moved to chanting (now in Yanting) due to the "chaos of Qiao Zong". The county was set up in the east of Lingjiang river near Yanjing, which is still known as Wan'an county.
