Historical evolution

After the liberation of Yichang, archaeologists found a large number of unearthed cultural relics in Xiaoxikou, qinjiatuo and Lujiahe of Taipingxi Town, which proved that human beings lived in Taipingxi as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties. There are written records in the book, which can be found in yilingzhouzhi compiled in the 10th year of Kangxi reign of Qing Dynasty: yuanjiapu, shenxipu and zhifangpu come out in the West; laolongpu, guoyuanpu, huangniupu and sandoupu go northward in the West. According to Donghu county annals compiled in the 28th year of the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, the base paper shop and Sanxi share the same boundary, which is now divided into two parts.

In the early Qing Dynasty, when the 38th shop of Wuxiang was adapted according to the grain book, it was divided into three shops: Orchard shop, Sanxi shop and Zhifang shop. Orchard shop belongs to Leyi Township, sanxipu and zhifangpu belong to Chongli township. In the third year of Tongzhi, the orchard shop was divided into East shop and West shop, and the paper shop was divided into front shop and back shop.

In the year of Guangxu, thirteen townships were reorganized into huangniu, Sandou, Sanxi, zhifangqian, zhifanghou, Guoyuan East, Guoyuan West and yuanjiabapu.

In the fifth year of the Republic of China (1916), the security corps was established by order, and the thirteen townships were reorganized into the thirteen District Corps. In September 1930, it was reorganized into a five District regiment. To the north of the Yangtze River, Sanxi, Zhifang front, Zhifang back, Guoyuan East, Guoyuan West and yuanjialiupu were divided into the fourth district. In April 1935, after the first and third districts were merged into the first district, the fourth district was upgraded to the third district.

In March 1949, after the establishment of Yichang county government, the territory was divided into ten districts. Sanxi, zhifangqian, zhifanghou, Guoyuan East and Guoyuan West were merged into the second district (namely, the areas under the jurisdiction of dengcun, Liziping, xiabaoping and Taipingxi town). The Second District People's government was established, which was under the jurisdiction of Taipingxi Township People's government, and the district government was stationed in dengcunping. In November 1951, 15 administrative villages such as xiabaoping were set up, and the people's Government of the 13th district was established. The township of wayaoping was set up in the third district, and the organs of the second district were moved to Taipingxi. In May 1956, the Sixth District was abolished, and Gucheng and jinxiangsi were merged. On October 1, 1958, the second district was abolished and Taipingxi people's Commune and dengcun people's commune were established. On April 26, 1961, the "Regulations of the CPC Central Committee on the system of rural people's communes" was implemented, and the communes were changed into districts. In October 1975, Taipingxi district was abolished and Taipingxi people's commune was established. In February 1984, the district and township system was restored, Taipingxi people's commune was abolished, and Taipingxi district was established. In January 1986, with the approval of the provincial people's government and the decision of the county people's government, the township level town where Taipingxi district is located was merged into the district level town, and the two brands of district and town were put up. The system of town governing village, residents committee and district governing township was implemented. In September 1987, Wuxiangmiao, duanfang, Qingling and huangjiachong were merged into Taipingxi town. On April 18, 1997, the town government moved to the new town of Taipingxi, yanzhuyuan.
