Yuzhu Street developed from the Yuzhu Market, which was built about 65,438+000 years ago, because there is a fish mountain (now called Qishan, now located at the signal station of Huangpu Port Authority) in the east of the market, which extends to the end of the Pearl River and is called "Yuzhu".

Yuzhu is a market with a history of thousands of years. It was once called "Donghai Yuzhu" and was one of the eight scenic spots in Yangcheng in Ming and Qing Dynasties.
