The development of history

Linxiang has a long history. Xia Shang belongs to Jingzhou, Spring and Autumn belongs to Chu and Qin belongs to Changsha County. In the second year of Song to Daoism, the Daoism of the Dynasty was established, and later it was changed to Linxiang County, which belongs to Baling County. Its culture is influenced by Chu culture, Huxiang culture and foreign culture, showing diversified characteristics. Linxiang City was expanded from Chang 'an Town. In the past, Chang 'an Town was a land transportation hub from Beijing to Guangzhou. In the tenth year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (138 1), Chang 'an Post Station was established. According to legend, in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Chang 'an people avoided fooling around, so they were called Chang 'an people. Later, someone opened a shop called Chang 'an Store. In the Qing Dynasty, it belonged to Wanghe River and Li Xia. In 6 years of the Republic of China (19 17), the northern section of Aohan Railway was opened to traffic, and the station was located here, so it gradually developed into a market. 19 (1930), the county government moved here from Lucheng. In 24 years (1935), Chang 'an Town was established, and 1936 was changed to Chang 'an Township. I always use this name because I miss the ancient capital. 1992 was approved by the State Council to withdraw from the county and set up a city.
