Historical records

Huanglongxi ancient town has been built for more than 1700 years. It has a profound historical background. It was named "Chishui" in ancient times, also known as yongxingchang. The original site was located in the backwater area on the East Bank of Fuhe River. It was destroyed by a fire in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, so it was also called "huoshaochang". Later, some families of he, Qiao and Tang moved to the current site to build the site, which gradually developed into the scale of today.

The chronicles of Huayang recorded a natural spectacle in the late Eastern Han Dynasty: "in the 24th year of Jian'an (219 AD), Huanglong saw the ninth day of Chishui in Wuyang.". In the Han Dynasty, Huanglongxi was under the jurisdiction of Wuyang, which was probably located in today's Xinjin and Pengshan areas along the Muma mountain.

Chishui River is the Luxi river that meets the Fuhe River today. During the flood season, since the upstream of Luxi river originates from Longquan Mountain, the water flowing down is mostly mountain stream water with a large amount of sediment, and the water color is red and yellow; while the water of Jinjiang River from Fuhe River originates from Minjiang River, which is clear and transparent. When the two rivers meet in today's Huanglong River, there is a clear distinction between the clear and turbid rivers. The mountains and rivers plunge into the Fuhe River with the momentum of subduction. It looks like a giant dragon swimming across the river. The local people vividly describe it as "Huanglong crossing the Qingjiang River". Over time, under the influence of generations of myths and legends, people naturally call this treasure land where "Huanglong" appears, which is called Huanglongxi.

According to the annals of Huayang County in the Republic of China, "the land seen by Huanglong used to belong to Wuyang, but now belongs to the administrative territory, so the river is famous."

According to the annals of Renshou County, "Chishui and brocade converge, the stream is brown, and the river is clear." the ancients said that "Huanglong crosses the Qingjiang River, and the real dragon hides in it". According to the record of "Huanglong Ganlu stele" recorded in "Lishu", Huanglong saw the event of Wuyang, built a tripod, like a dragon shaped, submerged... So it was called "Huanglongxi". In the 24th year of Jian'an (216 A.D.), in Han Dynasty, Wuyang was also the land of Pengshan in Xinjin. Dongxian county (Huaxian county) was bordered on the southeast. Renshou was also like Longya. The place where Huanglong lived in spring belonged to Wuyang and was governed by the government. Therefore, the river was named "Huanglongxi".

In the Qin and Han Dynasties, Huanglongxi town belonged to Wuyang County, Qianwei county (now Pengshan District).

In Song Dynasty, Huanglongxi town belonged to Pengshan County of Meizhou. In Yuan Dynasty, Pengshan County was abolished and merged into Meizhou.

In the early Ming Dynasty, Meizhou was reduced to Meixian County, and now the areas near Huanglongxi town were merged and under the jurisdiction of Renshou County. According to page 184 of Shuangliu County directory, Huishui village of Huanglongxi town was subordinate to Shunhe township of Renshou County in Ming Dynasty.

In the early Qing Dynasty, Renshou County belonged to Zhili Prefecture of Zizhou; Renshou County set up three townships for this large area, which was located at the junction of the three counties, "Donglin, Shunhe, anxiashang township". Today, Huanglongxi town and its surrounding areas belong to the Northeast Shunhe township.

At the end of Qing Dynasty, Huanglongxi was transferred from Renshou County to Huayang County of Chengdu.

On March 27, 1965, the 154th meeting of the State Council decided to cancel the establishment of Huayang county and merge it into Shuangliu County. On April 8, the people's Committee of Sichuan Province issued a notice of withdrawing and merging counties. On July 1, Huayang county was formally incorporated into Shuangliu County, and its 18 communes (including huangfo) and 3 towns were incorporated into Shuangliu County.

In 1976, Huishui Township in Jitian District of Renshou County was divided into Shuangliu.

On October 10, 1992, Shuangliu County decided to carry out the system adjustment of District, township and town. Huangfo Township and Huishui Township were merged into Huanglongxi town.

On December 3 and December 15, 2015, the State Council and the people's Government of Sichuan Province successively approved the revocation of Shuangliu County and the establishment of Shuangliu District of Chengdu City. The former administrative region of Shuangliu County is the administrative region of Shuangliu District, and Huanglongxi town is under the jurisdiction of Shuangliu district.

On March 26, 2016, the municipal government officially approved the request for instructions on adding sub district offices to six towns, including Yong'an Town, and agreed to add Street office signs to Huanglongxi Town, Shuangliu district.
