Houzhou waters

In ancient times, the Minjiang River was wide and the south of Damiao mountain was water area. During the reign of Yuanyou in the Northern Song Dynasty (1086-1093), a large sandbank, called lengyanzhou, appeared in the area of Zhongting street. Wang Zudao, the sheriff, advocated the construction of Lianzhou floating bridge on the Minjiang River from the south of lengyanzhou to Tianning mountain (today's Cangqian mountain), and on the Dadao River from the north of lengyanzhou to the present. He also built a pavilion on lengyanzhou for people to rest, which was named Zhongting street. In the second year of Chongning in the Northern Song Dynasty (1103), another pavilion was built in the north of Zhongting street, which was called Sizhou Pavilion. In the Ming Dynasty, it was called Sizhou shop. In 1322, the Pingliang stone bridge from lengyanzhou to Zhongzhou (Wanshou bridge, now Jiefang Bridge) was completed.

With the passage of time, the alluvial sediment, lengyanzhou gradually expanded, and cangxiazhou, Yingzhou and other places connected. Because this island is behind Damiao mountain, it is called Houzhou. Taijiang flood refers to the area along Taijiang Road, Jiangzhong road and Jiangbin Road. Because it is close to Minjiang River, Ming and Qing government set up flood inspection and defense here, so it is named. In 1927 and 1929, the embankment was built on the flood beach of Taijiang river at the north end of Wanshou bridge in two phases. Five bridge piers were filled and contracted. Six wharves and 10 concrete road heads were built along the embankment, and 130 mu of flat land was filled, which expanded the site here.
