Zhenjiang is located in the Yangtze River Delta with the most developed economy and potential in China, at the intersection of the Yangtze River, the third largest river in the world, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the longest artificial canal in China. It is a prefecture-level city in Jiangsu Province, which governs Danyang City, Yangzhong City and jurong city City, and is divided into Dantu District, Jingkou District, Runzhou District and Zhenjiang New District. It covers an area of 4,838 square kilometers and has a population of about 3 million.

The annual average temperature 15.4℃, sunshine hours 2057.2 hours, frost-free period 238 days, precipitation 1072.8 mm. ..

Zhenjiang is located in the southeast of Nanjing, where the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and the Yangtze River meet. Standing on the bank of Changjiang Road, you can clearly see Yangzhou on the other side of the river. The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal divides Zhenjiang into Jingkou and Runzhou. Zhenjiang has jurisdiction over Danyang City, jurong city City and Yangzhong City, with Dantu, Jingkou, Runzhou and New District (provincial economic development zone) in the urban areas. There are 67 townships in the city, with 10 sub-district offices.

2. Jiangnan literally means Jiangnan. "Jiang" has a special meaning in Chinese, which is the Yangtze River. Jiangnan originally refers to the area south of the Yangtze River. In ancient times, Jiangnan often represented prosperous culture and education and beautiful and rich water town scenery.

The theory that Jiangnan was born in the pre-Qin period. Until the Sui Dynasty, Jiangnan referred to Hunan and Jiangxi. The establishment of Jiangnan Road in Tang Dynasty was later divided into Jiangnan East Road, Jiangnan West Road and Guizhou Middle Road, which became the beginning of defining the meaning of modern Jiangnan.

Jiangnan, now referred to in a narrow sense, is generally regarded as the core of Jiangnan. That is, Jiangnan East Road is centered from Nanjing to Suzhou except Fujian and southern Zhejiang, including parts of Anhui, Jiangxi and Zhejiang south of the Yangtze River, namely, southern Jiangsu, northern Zhejiang, southern Anhui and northern Jiangxi. Some areas north of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, such as Yangzhou, are similar to Jiangnan in economy and culture, and are also considered as a part of Jiangnan. There are also some areas south of Taihu Lake and even south of Qiantang River, such as Shaoxing and Ningbo, which are not in the Yangtze River basin, but are considered Jiangnan.

Jiangnan in a broad sense refers to the whole Jiangnan area in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, that is, Jiangnan Road excluding southern Hunan, southwestern Jiangxi, Guizhou and Fujian. Including the narrow sense of Jiangnan, the north of Jiangxi, the south of the Yangtze River in Hubei and the north of Hunan. Jiangnan in a broad sense was widely used in ancient times, for example, Du Fu wrote "Meet Li Guinian and Go Down the River" in Changsha. Jiangnan in a broad sense is also used in modern times. For example, Jiangnan in weather forecast refers to Jiangnan in a broad sense; The three famous buildings in Jiangnan are all outside the narrow concept of Jiangnan.
