After Qin Shihuang unified China, Meng Tian led 300,000 troops to defend the border, built the world-famous Qin Changcheng and the famous Qinqu, which created the history of irrigation from the Yellow River. By the Han dynasty, the agricultural economy here had been quite prosperous. During the reign of Emperor Hanyangshuo, the northern electric farming town was built, which opened the first page of Yinchuan's urban construction history, and it has been more than 2000 years. Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, visited Ningxia twice and immigrated 700,000 people to China, further developing agricultural irrigation. In the third year of Yifeng in Tang Gaozu (AD 678), Huaiyuan New City was built, which is now the location of xingqing district in Yinchuan City. After the Tang Anshi Rebellion, Prince Hengli entered Ningxia, where he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor (Tang Suzong). At that time, Yinchuan had become one of the important routes of east-west traffic and trade in China, with developed agriculture and considerable wealth.
In A.D. 1038, Li Yuanhao, the leader of the Tangut, established the Daxia Kingdom with Ningxia as the center, which was called Xixia in history and Xingqingfu (now Yinchuan) as its capital. Chief Li Yuanhao built an altar here to collect books, which is the throne of the emperor. At that time, the territory of Xixia included Ningxia, most of Gansu, northwestern Shaanxi, eastern Xinjiang and other vast areas in the northwest, and confronted the Song, Liao and Jin regimes 189. After the Yuan Dynasty destroyed Xixia, 1288 set up Ningxia government road, and the place name "Ningxia" came into being. Since then, Yinchuan has been an important town for the dynasties to guard the border.
After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), 1958 established Ningxia * * * Autonomous Region with Yinchuan as its capital.
2. The origin of Ningxia Ningxia Ningxia was named after Ningxia, which began with the pacification of Xixia in A.D. 1227. After the Yuan Dynasty destroyed Xixia, it was renamed "Ningxia", which means the pacification, stability and "tranquility" of Xixia.
Ningxia has a long history. According to the archaeological discoveries made by archaeologists in Shuidonggou, Lingwu County and Changliu, Zhongwei County, Ningxia, as early as 30,000 years ago, there was human life in the Paleolithic Age in this land, creating a world-famous "Shuidonggou culture".
In 22 1 year BC, Qin destroyed six countries and recovered Hetao. At that time, Ningxia was a northern county, and a large number of subjects from six countries moved here to reclaim land and build canals for irrigation. It laid the foundation for agricultural development in Ningxia Plain. The Qin Canal, dug in the Qin Dynasty, is still in use today. During the period of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, a large number of immigrants poured into Hetao area of Ningxia. It also brought advanced farming techniques to the Central Plains. In order to expand cultivated land, a new Han canal was dug.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms split and the Central Plains was at war. Ningxia has become Qiang, Xiongnu and Xianbei.
Nomadic, competitive place. In 407-43 1 year, Helian Bobo, the Hun, rose, established Daxia and became one of the sixteen countries. Now Guyuan, Lingwu and Yinchuan in Ningxia are all under its jurisdiction. Li Yuan destroyed Sui and Jian Tang Dynasties, and the whole country was divided into fifteen roads. Ningxia belongs to Guannei Road. In Lingzhou, south of Lingwu County, there are more than 60,000 troops stationed in Doudufu and Shuofang. Become the political, military, economic and transportation center of northwest China. During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, Ningxia's economy also developed greatly.
In A.D. 1038, Yuan Hao officially proclaimed himself emperor, with the title of Xia. Because in the western part of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was different from Lianxia, one of the sixteen countries, so it was called Xixia in history. Xingqing House, now Yinchuan, is not only the political and economic center of Xixia, but also the hub of water conservancy irrigation. In Xixia, animal husbandry flourished. Most of the horses used in the Song Dynasty were purchased from Xixia. Genghis Khan also got many camels from Xixia. Xixia handicraft industry is also very developed, mainly tanning, spinning wool and making carpets. The Chengtian Temple Tower, built in Liang Zuo, still stands in Yinchuan, showing the superb architectural skills of Xixia people.
In a.d. 1227, after the Xixia kingdom was destroyed by Genghis Khan, Yuan set up the Ningxia government road here and began to move into * * *. After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, Ningxia became a frontier fortress.
In A.D. 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered farmers to return to farming, acknowledging that the tiller has his field and the tiller enjoys it. Later, imperial edicts were issued, stipulating that farmers in Ningxia and other places should own their own land and never levy taxes. * * * also organized the army to build water conservancy projects, and placed a large number of * * * as "garrison" people in Lingzhou and Guyuan. Around A.D. 14 12, the population doubled and the grain reserves increased. Storage in Ningxia and other places can support local 10 annual salary. However, after the mid-Ming Dynasty, there was a war, and Ningxia's economy was greatly damaged.
The establishment of the Ningxia government has generally reduced taxes in Ningxia. By the end of 18, from Ningxia to Pingliang, thousands of miles back to Zhuang, it has gradually become the largest and most concentrated settlement in China. After the Republic of China, Ningxia was established as a province in A.D. 1929, with jurisdiction over eight counties including Ningxia, Ningshuo, Pingluo, Lingwu, Yanchi, Jinji, Tongxin and Zhongwei, and Alashan and Ejina Banner in Inner Mongolia.
1949 10 Ningxia was liberated, and the jurisdiction of the original organization remained unchanged. 1954, Ningxia was merged into Gansu province. 1958 10 Ningxia autonomous region was formally established.
3. The origin of Yinchuan's name Yinchuan is an ancient city with a long history and a developing regional central city. It is also called "Phoenix City" in folklore.
The earliest settlements in Yinchuan were discovered 30,000 years ago in Shuidonggou Site in Hengcheng, lingwu city, Beibao in Xijiao Town of Yinchuan and Hot Springs in Helan County. During the Shang Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was a nomadic area for ethnic activities such as Northern Qiang, Xun Yu (Porridge) and Xiongnu.
In 22 1 year BC, after Qin Shihuang unified China, Yinchuan belonged to Beidi County. During the reign of Emperor Yangshuo of Han Dynasty (around 24 BC), the northern electric agricultural city (also known as Lucheng and Drinking Khan City) was built, which was the beginning of Yinchuan's construction.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Lizi Garden was rebuilt in Daxia, which became an important town for garrisoning troops and transporting grain. Huaiyuan County and Huaiyuan County are located in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
In the second year of Yifeng in Tang Gaozong (677), Huaiyuan County was flooded by the Yellow River and the city was abandoned. In the second year (678), a new city was built in the west of the old city (now xingqing district, Yinchuan).
Huaiyuan town in the Song Dynasty, the fourth year of Tianxi in the North (1020), the Tangut leader Li Deming moved the capital from Lingzhou (now Lingwu) to huaiyuan town (now Yinchuan), and the palace was renamed Xingzhou. Li Deming's son, Li Yuanhao, became Xingqing Prefecture.
In the first year of Song Baoyuan (1038), Li Yuanhao built an altar in Xingqing House, where the emperor's throne was located, and built Daxia Kingdom (known as Xixia in history), with Xingqing House (Yinchuan) as its capital. Yuan bought Zhongxing Road and later changed it to Ningxia Fu Road.
Ningxia House was established in Ming Dynasty, which is one of the "Jiubian Towns". The Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were still ruled by the Ningxia government.
During the Republic of China (1929), Ningxia Province was established, with Yinchuan as the capital, which was called the capital of Ningxia. 1April, 944, the capital of Ningxia was named Yinchuan.
When People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded, it was still the capital of Ningxia. 1954 The organizational system of Ningxia Province was abolished, and Yinchuan City was the location of Yinchuan institution in Gansu Province.
1958101On October 25th, Ningxia * * * Autonomous Region was established. Yinchuan is the capital and the political, economic and cultural center of the autonomous region.
4. The Origin of Yinchuan "Yinchuan", as an ancient place name, was first seen in "Geography of the New Tang Dynasty": "Yinchuan County, Yinzhou".
So the address is in the northeast of Mizhi County, Shaanxi Province. According to the Records of Reading Historical Records, in the fourth year of Song Chongning (1 105), "Yinzhou was still set up, and after five years, it was abandoned as Yinchuan City, and the gold was Yinchuan Village.
Begging for waste. The word "Yinchuan" appeared in the local literature of Ningxia, around the end of Ming and early Qing dynasties.
Some officials and scholars use "Yinchuan" to describe the beautiful scenery of Ningxia Plain with criss-crossing ditches and lakes. Such as "leaning against the river by camel bells, taking Yinchuan Helan far away" and "even the mountains are like waves, and the Yellow River is wide.
The castle is vast, so is Yinchuan. ""Or Tianwu will chat and temporarily move the loach cave to Yinchuan. "Yinchuan in these poems has no clear meaning of place names.
During the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, the word "Yinchuan" gradually took on the meaning of place names. For example, in the inscription of Huinong Canal, "The Yellow River originates from Kunlun, accumulates stones, passes through Yinchuan and flows northward from Shizuishan ..." Yinchuan in the inscription is generally called Yinchuan Plain as the Yellow River Irrigation Area.
Yinchuan, referred to as "Silver" for short, is the capital of Ningxia * * * Autonomous Region, the military, political, economic, cultural, scientific research, transportation, finance and commercial center of the whole region. It is a comprehensive industrial city with the development of textile industry as the mainstay and the coordinated development of machinery, chemical industry and building materials industry. Yinchuan is located in the middle of Ningxia Plain in the northwest of China, with Helan Mountain in the west and the Yellow River in the east. It is a developing regional central city and the permanent venue of China National Expo.
Yinchuan is an ancient city with a long history. It is the capital of Xixia Dynasty and a national historical and cultural city. It is also called "Phoenix City" in folklore and "Xingqing House" and "Ningxia City" in ancient times. Known as the "Land of Fish and Rice in the South of the Yangtze River" and "Pearl", there is a famous national scenic spot Xixia Mausoleum in the west. The comprehensive competitiveness of the city ranks among the top 100 in China, and it has won the honors of national civilized city, national water-saving city, national sanitary city, national garden city, national environmental protection model city and China human settlement environment model award. It was rated as "Top Ten Xinfengdu in China". The site of Shuidonggou in Hengcheng in Paleolithic Age and the site of Neolithic culture in Zhenbeibao and Wenquan were the earliest settlements discovered in Yinchuan 30,000 years ago.
During the Shang Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it was a nomadic area for ethnic activities such as Northern Qiang, Xun Yu (Porridge) and Xiongnu. In 22 1 year BC, after Qin Shihuang destroyed the Six Kingdoms, Meng Tian led 300,000 troops to attack the Xiongnu in the north and took the land of Hetao. According to Hedong area of Ningxia Plain, there are thirty-six counties in Qin Fen and northern counties in Yinchuan.
During the reign of Emperor Yangshuo of Han Dynasty (around 24 BC), the northern electric agricultural city (also known as Lucheng and Drinking Khan City) was built, which was the beginning of Yinchuan's construction. During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Lizi Garden was rebuilt in Daxia, which became an important town for garrisoning troops and transporting grain.
Huaiyuan County and Huaiyuan County are located in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Huaiyuan County and Huaiyuan County are located in the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
In the second year of Yifeng in Tang Gaozong (677), Huaiyuan County was flooded by the Yellow River and the city was abandoned. In the second year (678), a new city (now Yinchuan xingqing district) was built in the western ridge of the old city.
Huaiyuan town in the Song Dynasty, the fourth year of Tianxi in the North (1020), the Tangut leader Li Deming moved the capital from Lingzhou (now Lingwu) to huaiyuan town (now Yinchuan), and the palace was renamed Xingzhou. Li Deming's son, Li Yuanhao, became Xingqing Prefecture.
In the first year of Song Baoyuan (1038), Li Yuanhao built an altar in Xingqing House, where the emperor's throne was located, and built Daxia Kingdom (known as Xixia in history), with Xingqing House (Yinchuan) as its capital. Zhongxing Road was built in Yuan Dynasty and later changed to Ningxia Fu Road, hence the name of Ningxia.
Ningxia House was established in Ming Dynasty, which is one of the "Jiubian Towns". The Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were still ruled by the Ningxia government.
In the Republic of China, the name of Ningxia Road was the same as that of Ningxia County in the Qing Dynasty. Ningxia was an ancient road of Shuofang, so it was changed to Shuofang Road, which was in charge of Ningxia, Ningshuo, Zhongwei, Pingluo, Lingwu, Jinji, Yanchi and Rong Zhen counties and still belonged to Gansu Province. Taoist temple department and Ningxia and Ningshuo counties are both located in Ningxia.
19 13 years, Ningshuo County moved to Xinmancheng, and then moved to Wanghongbao, Qujiangbao and Xiaoba Town, Qingtongxia City, Yongning County. 1923 10 17 In June, the former eight counties of Shuofang Road in Gansu Province merged with the territory of Tao Xi Mongolian Banner under the jurisdiction of Ningxia Guards to form Ningxia Province.
1929 65438+101Ningxia province was established with its capital in Ningxia. 194 1 Analysis of Ningxia and Ningshuo Counties In April, Yongning County was added to some jurisdictions, and the county was located in Yanghebao (now Yanghe Town, Yongning).
Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region was renamed Helan County, and the county government moved from the provincial capital to Xiebao (now Xigang Town, Helan County). 1944 65438+ 10 changed the provincial capital of Ningxia into an organizational city and named Yinchuan, which is still the provincial capital of Ningxia.
When People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded, it was still the capital of Ningxia. 1954 The organizational system of Ningxia Province was abolished, and Yinchuan City was the location of Yinchuan institution in Gansu Province.
1958 10, Ningxia * * * Autonomous Region was established. Yinchuan is the capital and the political, economic and cultural center of the autonomous region. [2-3] Origin of Place Names "Yinchuan", as an ancient place name, first appeared in "Geography of the New Tang Dynasty": "Yinchuan County, Yinzhou".
So the address is in the northeast of Mizhi County, Shaanxi Province. According to the Records of Reading Historical Records, in the fourth year of Song Chongning (1 105), "Yinzhou was still set up, and after five years, it was abandoned as Yinchuan City, and the gold was Yinchuan Village.

During the Qianlong period of Qing Dynasty, Zhao Benzhi, the magistrate of Ningxia, founded Yinchuan Academy in Fucheng (now Yinchuan City), and Wang Yichen edited Yinchuan Xiaozhi. The scope of the word "Yinchuan" tends to be specific and clear, and it begins to assume the meaning of place names, and gradually becomes synonymous with Ningxia Fucheng.
1944, the capital of Ningxia (now the former site of Yinchuan) was changed into an organizational city, and it was officially named "Yinchuan". Place names have been used to this day.

5. The origin of Yinchuan City in Ningxia is named "Yinchuan" for many reasons, and its formation has a tortuous historical process.
Yinchuan, Ningxia today, was the site of Lingzhou, Xingzhou and Shuofang in ancient times. In history books, Xia Ling, Yin Xia, Linxia and Lin Yin are used to refer to Ningxia and northern Shaanxi today, and Ningxia has long been closely linked with the word "silver". This is because at least from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, the northern Shaanxi area adjacent to Ningxia today was called Lianhu in place names.
Especially in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Zhou Xia was established in northern Shaanxi (now Baichengzi Township, northeast of Jingbian County, Shaanxi Province), Yinzhou was established in the Northern Zhou Dynasty (now East of Hengshan County, Shaanxi Province), and it was renamed Yinchuan County in the Tang Dynasty. In addition, during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, we also set up Xia and Sui Silver Banners in today's northern Shaanxi.
In the Tang Dynasty, northern Shaanxi became the center of the separatist forces of the Tangut Qiang Tuoba Department. In Song Dynasty, northern Shaanxi was one of the main battlefields of Song Dynasty and Xixia.
In 985, in the second year of Yongxi in the Northern Song Dynasty, Yinzhou City (Yinchuan County) was captured by Xixia Army. In the fifth year of Yuanfeng (1082), Song Jun rebuilt a new town in the former site of Yongle City (now northwest of Mizhi County, Shaanxi Province) and named it "Yinchuan Village" or "Yinchuan City". The military position of this city is very important, and it became a military important place in Song and Xia Dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, in the works of some celebrities and officials, in order to express nostalgia for the past and show the elegance of the past, they sometimes used Zhou Xia to shoot Ningxia consciously, and at the same time used Yinzhou or Yinchuan to compare Xingzhou and later Ningxia City (now Yinchuan City).
For example, the first sentence at the beginning of Cao Lian's article "Xixia Shengxingfu" is "a big county in Zhouxia". What does this "Xiazhou" mean? According to the title of the article, the so-called Zhou Xia in the article refers to the ancient Xixia and Ningxia town in the Ming Dynasty, because the article mentions "there are heavy obstacles in rivers and canals", "the water whirls harmoniously", "Yingpan promotes martial arts", "beautiful gardens", "crisp autumn", "Lishan clouds" and "He Lanxue Qing"
For example, in the record of rebuilding the Temple of the Sea in Yongji Zhi, Shanxi, Guo Zhiyan, the person who donated the repair, was the governor of Ningxia. The inscription describes this as follows: Guo Zhiyan "opened the house in Yinxia", apparently using "Yinxia" to refer to Ningxia and Ningxia towns in the Ming Dynasty.
Wang Chonggu, another governor of Ningxia in the Ming Dynasty, wrote in a poem "Farewell to Wu Xitai in the North" that there is also a sentence that "three years should be a silver shoulder, and autumn should drive the heart out". Here, "Yin Shuo" was called Ningxia in the Ming Dynasty and Ningxia Town was on nine borders. The new moon obviously refers to the whole territory of Ningxia; Silver means town.
It seems that the scope of Xia Ling, Yin Xia, Yin Shuo and Lin Yin referring to the ancient towns of Xixia and Ningxia in the Ming Dynasty is gradually shifting and narrowing to the point of referring to towns (Ningxia City). At this time, the words "silver" and "summer" mentioned in poetry articles basically refer to the whole territory of Ningxia, and there is no clear meaning of place names.
Finally, in the late Ming Dynasty, Liu Minkuan, the commander-in-chief of the three sides in charge of the four major military towns in northwest China, made a breakthrough for the first time in a poem he wrote. There is a sentence in "Four Poems of Yang Chupu Caressing the Great Wall in Autumn": "Terraced fields cover Guanshan Mountain, and there are infinite magnificent trees.
Smoke clouds follow the sword and the stars sway. We must rely on camel bells to reach the river and win Yinchuan and Helan from a distance.
In Hangu Pass, Yumen is like a tripod, and 12% of Jincheng is in An Lan. "Liu Minkuan, a native of Yuncheng, Shanxi Province, was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Wanli (1577). In the 43rd year of Wanli (16 15), the governor of Yansui was promoted to the governor of Shaanxi Trilateral, and a yamen was opened in Guyuan (now Guyuan City, Ningxia) to control the military forces of Yansui, Ningxia, Ganzhou and Guyuan, and to command the Northwest Theater in a unified way.
This poem should have been improvised at the Great Wall Pass (the Great Wall outside the East Gate of Chicheng, Ma Minghua) when he was the governor of the Trilateral Region, and he was performing the task of reading the border in autumn from Guyuan to Huamachi (now Yanchi County). The "Yinchuan" mentioned in the poem is no longer a metaphor for Guxingzhou and Ningxia Town, because the poem is about Hetao, which appears at the same time as Helan Mountain. The Great Wall or Yellow River described is like two belts, which "take" Yinchuan and "note" Helan.
Therefore, judging from the poem and the whole poem, the word "Yinchuan" in the poem really refers to Yinchuan Plain or Ningxia Town. It is not difficult to see that until the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was still no town named after Yinchuan, so there was no such thing as a town named after Yinchuan.
Even the literati's favorite way of naming academies is to look back. At that time, the academies in the town were named Zheng Yang, Wen Yi and Shuofang respectively. After the Qing dynasty, the situation was very different. People began to take a fancy to the word "Yinchuan" and gradually used it widely in Ningxia. Gradually contracted from Hexi Irrigation District to Ningxia City, and finally became an alias and synonym for this ancient city.
In the Qing Dynasty, Ningxia Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of Gansu Province, and Fucheng was now Yinchuan City. In historical documents, Yinchuan was called Fucheng for the first time in the forty-seventh year of Kangxi (1708). Wang, a water conservancy expert in Ningxia, said in the poem "Rebuilding the Hidden Cave of the Han Canal": "On the occasion of the Han and Tang Dynasties, the river ran and danced for Changhong.
Tang came to the west around the foothills of Lan Mountain, and Han extended to the east of Tang Dynasty. ..... I once heard that there are thousands of streams in a song from the source of the river, or the loach cave was moved to Yinchuan when the weather was short. "
After Wang, it was Tong Zhi who shot Xiacheng with Yinchuan earlier. He was an assistant minister of the Ministry of War in the Qing Dynasty. In the fourth year of Yongzheng (1726), he was ordered to preside over the construction of the second canal benefiting farmers and Changrun in Ningxia. In the seventh year (1729), the canal was completed, and he personally wrote the inscription of Huinong Canal. The inscription begins: "The Yellow River rises in Kunlun, accumulates stones, passes through Yinchuan, and goes north from Shizui ..."
When the monument was erected, it can be seen that the ancient city of Ningxia was named "Yinchuan", which really appeared at the time of Qing Kang Yong. In the eighteenth year of Qianlong (1753), Zhao Benzhi, the magistrate of Ningxia prefecture, was in Fucheng (now Yinan).
6. The history, culture and Han Dynasty of Ningxia belong to Shuofang History Department.
In the Western Han Dynasty, Beidi County was under the jurisdiction of Huan County, Gansu Province. Guyuan is located in Anding County; Ningxia belongs to Beidi County and Anding County. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Anding County moved to zhenyuan county, Gansu, and Beijun moved to the southwest of Litong District, Wuzhong City.
Sixteen countries, the territory of Daxia country built by Helian Bobo, the leader of Xiongnu Iron Buddha Department. During the Northern Wei and Zhou Dynasties, immigrants continued to promote the development of villages, and the villages were effectively developed again. Ningxia was originally named "South of the Saibei River".
In Tang Dynasty, Ningxia belonged to Guannei Road, including Yuanzhou, Lingzhou, Xi Hui, Anle, Xiongzhou and Policeman. In the 14th year of Tianbao (755), the "Anshi Rebellion" broke out in the Tang Dynasty, and Prince Hengli became Tang Suzong in Lingwu, Ningxia.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, Ningxia belonged to Qingfeng Road, and the northern part of Ningxia was occupied by Li and Dangxiang. The Northern Song Dynasty only controlled the southern part of Ningxia, and the southern part of Ningxia was changed to Jingyuan Road. In the Yuan Dynasty, Xixia Zhongxing was established at the site of Xixia National Memorial.
In the 24th year of Zhiyuan (1287), Ningxia government road was established, hence the name Ningxia. Ningxia Prefecture was established in the early Ming Dynasty, and later changed to Wei.
Ningxia Zuo Tunwei, Zhong Tunwei and avant-garde, central defender and defender were added. Later, Ningxia Town and Guyuan Town were set up, and nine defense zones were set up along the Great Wall, called Nine Towns, which was the second important border town in the Ming Dynasty.
In the fifth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1648), the Qing Dynasty set up a governor in Ningxia, which was the chief secretary of Shaanxi Province and affiliated to Jiankangyuan, and Ningxia was the subject province. Retreat, change the Ningxia government, set up a county, and belong to Gansu, but promote the Ningxia company commander as the prefect and add the Ningxia general government, without losing the provincial pattern.
The most famous local specialties in Ningxia are Lycium barbarum, licorice, Helan stone, two fur and Yitan sheep, which are also called "Four Treasures" because of their red, yellow, blue and white colors. Ningxia cuisine is mainly based on northwest pasta with many characteristics.
Because agriculture is developed, vegetables and fruits are richer than Gansu, and rivers such as the Yellow River are all over the region. The main edible meat is beef and mutton, and the big markets in all counties kill live sheep, and all kinds of mutton dishes can't be tasted.
* * * Tradition is not close to alcohol and tobacco, so the more traditional * * * restaurants do not provide alcoholic drinks. However, most people in the northwest drink alcohol, and the low-alcohol liquor and fruit wine there are pure in taste.
