According to the Records of Yishui County in the 11th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, "Ji Wang is flat and broad, and can accommodate ten thousand people. According to legend, Hou Ji therefore went to the countryside ". At the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the vassal state of Ji moved here because of the attack of Qi. Seeing that this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack, with arable land and drinking water, it is really a treasure house for recuperation, so I built a second capital here and occupied it for eight years. At present, some ancient city sites still exist in Jiwanggu. In addition, China's unique landforms have obvious features, such as steep cliffs and beautiful surrounding natural scenery, which makes Ji Wanggu win the reputation of "the first city in Yimeng, the eternal king city".
