Huoshaoyun--Zhenjiang Jinshan Zhenjiang Zhenjiang was called "Yi", "Zhu Fang", "Dantu", "Jingkou", "Runzhou" and "South Xuzhou" in ancient times. There are two explanations for the name: one is that the area along the river bank in the north of Zhenjiang is relatively low-lying and was often damaged by floods in ancient times, so an auspicious word was added before the name of the water to express hope. The second one came into existence when Runzhou was renamed Zhenjiang Prefecture in 1113 AD during the Song Dynasty (the third year of Emperor Huizong's reform in the Song Dynasty). It is said that the rulers at that time believed that Zhenjiang's geographical location was superior, with mountains behind it and the river facing it, and the situation was dangerous. It was a place to guard the river defense, so it was named Zhenjiang. The name Zhenjiang has been used for more than 800 years. The evolution of Zhenjiang's name reflects that Zhenjiang has always been an important political center and a battleground for military strategists.
