情况报告Guangzhou History. from googleearth
It is believed that the first city built at the site of Guangzhou was Panyu (蕃禺, later simplife
d to 番禺; the locals pronounced this in Cantone as Poon Yu) founded in 214 BC. The city has been continuously occupied since that time. Panyu was expanded when it became the capital of the Nanyue Kingdom (南越) in 206 BC.
草木葱茏Recent archaeological founding of her palace suggests that the city might have traded frequently with foreigners by the a routes. The foreign trade continued through every following dynasty and the city remains a major international trading port to this day.
The Han Dynasty annexed Nanyue in 111 BC, and Panyu became a provincial capital and remains so until this day. In 226 AD, the city became the at of the Guang Prefecture (廣州; Guangzhou). Therefore, 'Guangzhou' was the name of the prefecture, not of the city. However, people grew accustomed to calling the city Guangzhou, instead of Panyu.
Although the Chine name of Guangzhou replaced Panyu as the name of the walled city, Panyu was still the name of the area surrounding the walled city until the end of Qing era.
Arabs and Persians sacked Guangzhou (known to them as Sin-Kalan) in AD 758, 2 accor
ding to a local Guangzhou government report on October 30, 758, which corresponded to the day of Guisi (癸巳) of the ninth lunar month in the first year of the Qianyuan era of Emperor Suzong of the Tang Dynasty.[1][2][3]祝福祖国的歌曲
During the Northern Song Dynasty, a celebrated poet called Su Shi visited Guangzhou's BaozhuangyanTemple and wrote the inscription 'Liu Rong' (Six Banyan Trees) becau of the six banyan trees he saw there. It has since been called the Temple of the Six Banyan Trees.
薄棉袜The Portugue were the first Europeans to arrive to the city by a, obtaining the monopoly for external trade with its harbour by 1511. They were later expelled from their ttlements in Guangzhou (in Portugue Canton or Cantao), but instead granted u of Macao (first occupied in 1511) as a trade ba with the city in 1557. They would keep a near monopoly of foreign trade in the region until the arrival of the Dutch in the early XVII century.
After China brought Taiwan under its control in 1683, the Qing government became open to encouraging foreign trade. Guangzhou quickly emerged as one of the most adaptable
ports for negotiating commerce and before long, many foreign ships were going there to procure cargos. Portugue in Macao, Spanish in Manila, and Armenians and Muslims from India were already actively trading in the port by the 1690s, when the French and English East India companies' ships began frequenting the port. Other companies were soon to follow: the Ostend General India Company in 1717; Dutch East India Company in 1729; the first Danish ship in 1731, which was followed by a Danish Asiatic Company ship in 1734; the Swedish East India Company in 1732; followed by an occasional Prussian and Trieste Company ship; the Americans in 1784; and the first ships from Australia in 1788. By the middle of the 18th century, Guangzhou had emerged as one of the world's great trading ports, which was a distinction it maintained until the outbreak of the Opium War in 1839 and the opening of other ports in China in 1842.
Guangzhou was one of the five Chine treaty ports opened by the Treaty of Nanking (signed in 1842) at the end of the First Opium War between Britain and China. The other ports were Fuzhou, Xiamen, Ningbo, and Shanghai.
In 1918, 'Guangzhou' became the official name of the city, when an urban council was est
ablished in it. Panyu became a county's name south of Guangzhou. In both 1930 and 1953, Guangzhou was promoted to the status of a Municipality, but each promotion was cancelled within the year.
Japane troops occupied Guangzhou from 1938-10-12 to 1945-09-16.
Communist forces entered the city on October 14, 1949. Their urban renewal projects improved the lives of many residents. New housing on the shores of the Pearl River provided homes for the poor boat people. Reforms by Deng Xiaoping, who came to power in the late 1970s, led to rapid economic growth due to the city's clo proximity to Hong Kong and access to the Pearl River.
As labor costs incread in Hong Kong, manufacturers opened new plants in the cities of Guangdong including Guangzhou. As the largest city in one of China's wealthiest provinces, Guangzhou attracts farmers from the countryside looking for factory work. Cantone links to overas Chine and beneficial tax reforms of the 1990s have aided the city's rapid growth.
In 2000, Huadu and Panyu were merged into Guangzhou as districts, and Conghua and Zengcheng became county-level cities of Guangzhou.
