History



In 1122 BC, King Wu of Zhou conquered Shang and enfeoffed the princes. He granted Zhou Zhang the title of Wu, and the country was named Wu. The hometown of Lishui belongs to Wu.
In the 11th year of the founding of the Sui Dynasty (591), Lishui County was established in the northwest of Liyang and the eastern part of Danyang (now Xiaodanyang, Jiangning). This was the beginning of the establishment of Lishui County.
In the first year of Yuanzhen (1295) of the Yuan Dynasty, Lishui County was promoted to Lishui Prefecture, which belonged to Jiqing Road (today's Nanjing).
In the second year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1369), Lishui Prefecture was changed to Lishui County, which belonged to Yingtian Prefecture (today's Nanjing City).
On April 25, 1949, Lishui implemented a district system and belonged to the Zhenjiang District of the Southern Jiangsu Administrative Office.

The names of each district were changed to the names of the places where they are located, namely: Baima District, Fangbian District, Zhetang District, Honglan District, Shiqiu District, Kongzhen District, and Xinqiao District.
In February 2013, with the approval of the provincial government, Lishui County was abolished and Lishui District of Nanjing City was established. The administrative area of the original Lishui County was the administrative area of Lishui District of Nanjing City. Since then, Lishui has ended its 1422-year county history.
