Wuhu, located in the southeast of Anhui Province, is a key open city along the Yangtze River approved by the State Council. Located on the south bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. To the south of Anhui Mountain System and to the north of Jianghuai Plain, the vast Yangtze River flows slowly from southwest to northeast, and Qingyi River flows through the city from southeast to northwest and joins the Yangtze River. Like a bright pearl, she is embedded in the intersection of John Wan and Qingyi River. Wuhu is rich in historical and cultural resources. The "herringbone cave" in Fanchang County is an important discovery of ancient human archaeology. Stone tools, bone implements and various mammal fossils made by ancient humans ranged from 2 million to 2.5 million years, which traced the history of human activities in Asia back to 400,000 to 500,000 years and attracted worldwide attention. The ancient kiln site of Kejia Village in Fanchang, "Wanniudun" in Pingpu Township of Fanchang, the mound tomb of wuyue in Nanling and the site of Dagongshan copper mine in Nanling are all national key cultural relics protection units.

The earliest former site of Wuhu is Jiuzi, located on the south bank of Shuiyangjiang, about 40 miles southeast of the city. Zuo Zhuan said, "In the third year of Duke Xiang of Lu (570 BC), Chu attacked Wu and conquered nine sons. As for Hengshan. " The Hengshan Mountain mentioned here is the Hengshan Mountain in the northeast of dangtu county. Jiuzicheng site is located at the end of the erosion mound extending northward on the south bank of Shuiyangjiang River. From this, the terrain to the west is low and flat, mostly in hutang swamp area. Because there are many grasses in the lake and marsh, there are many pigeons and birds, so they are named Jiuzi, also known as "Dog Son", "Gao Zi" and "Zhuzi". There is a long lake near Jiuzi, named Wuhu because of "the water is not deep and weeds grow". At that time, this section of Shuiyangjiang was called Zhongjiang, with the Yangtze River in the west and Taihu Lake in the east, which was an important east-west traffic waterway. Jiuzi is the ferry that controls Zhongjiang, and its position is very important. In 109 BC, that is, in the second year of Han Yuanfeng, Jiuzi had set up a county and changed its name to Wuhu, which was the early city of Wuhu. Municipal districts:
