Which city does Chibi, Hubei belong to?

Chibi belongs to Hubei Province and is a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Xianning City. It is located in the southeast of Hubei Province and on the south bank of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. It is the contact zone between the Mufu low hills and Jianghan Plain. The geographical coordinates of Chibi City are 113°32′～114°13′ east longitude and 29°28′～29°55′ north latitude. It is adjacent to the provincial capital Wuhan to the north and Yueyang, an important town in northern Hunan to the south. It is known as the "South Gate of Hubei" and is an important part of the Wuhan urban circle.

Chibi was called Puqi in ancient times. It originated from the establishment of Puqi County in the second year of Huangwu in the Eastern Wu Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms. It was named because the lakes were rich in cattail grass (the material for weaving futons in ancient times) and formed a market. In May 1986, with the approval of the State Council, Puqi County was removed from the county and established as a city, and was managed by Xianning City. In June 1998, it was renamed Chibi City.
