Which city is Nanshan or Shuibei?

Xianyang, Shaanxi, known as the first imperial city in the world, is the capital of Daqin Empire. Location: Shan Zhinan, Jiuyang, north of Weihe River. Geographically, both mountains and water are Yang, hence the name Xianyang. Located in the south of the mountain and the north of the water, the first one is naturally selected.

Xianyang's geographical position is very important and belongs to the central position of our country. If you draw a circle, it should be the position of a point. Such a geographical location, coupled with mountains and rivers, will naturally attract the attention of ancient kings.

As for the origin of Xianyang's name, there are ancient sayings that Shuibei was "Yang" and Shan Zhinan was "Yang". Xianyang is located in the north of Jiuzhang Shan Zhinan and Weihe River, where mountains and rivers are sunny, so it is called Xianyang. The word "salty" means "all" and "all".

In addition, according to historical records and Wen Tao's distance from Xianyang and Qin Dou, some people think that Shang Yang established Xianheng and Liyang here. In 350 BC, Qin Xiaogong merged the two places, namely Xianyang.

Xianyang terrain is high in the north and low in the south, showing a ladder shape. The elevation of Shimen Peak in Xunyi County in the northeast is1885.3m, which is the highest point in the city. The Qinghe exit of Dacheng Town, Sanyuan County in the southeast is 362 meters above sea level, which is the lowest place in the city.

The northern part belongs to the southern edge of the semi-arid gully region of Weibei Loess Plateau, with an altitude of 1000 m to 1800 m and an area of 6,374.2 square kilometers. The Weihe River Basin in the south is a part of Guanzhong Plain, with an area of 2,684.3 square kilometers and flat terrain. Agricultural reclamation has a long history.
