The origin of Heilongjiang name

Heilongjiang province is named after this river. The name of Heilongjiang was first seen in Liao history. Because the river is black and shaped like a dragon, it is named Heilongjiang.

In the Qing Dynasty, General Heilongjiang and Jilin General established and managed the Heilongjiang region. In the ninth year of Shunzhi, the Qing court sent Mailer Zhang Jing to station troops in Ningguta, and was promoted to Angbang Zhang Jing the following year. Northeast China is divided into two military garrison areas. In the tenth year of Kangxi, the Qing Dynasty built a city on the bank of Heilongjiang, named Heilongjiang City, which was changed to Heilongjiang Province after the late Qing Dynasty.

Heilongjiang Province, referred to as "Black" for short, is the provincial administrative region of Harbin, the capital of People's Republic of China (PRC). It is the northernmost and easternmost provincial administrative region in China, facing Russia across the river in the north and east, bordering Inner Mongolia in the west and Jilin Province in the south.

The ancient city with a long history in Heilongjiang.

Hailin County in the east of Heilongjiang Province is the seat of Ningguta, where the Qing court exiled prisoners more than 300 years ago. According to legend, six brothers, the distant ancestor of the Qing royal family, lived here, and the word "six" in Manchu was called "Ningguta", so it was called Ningguta Baylor, or Ningguta for short.

There are two cities in Ningguta, the old and the new. The old city is in today's hailin city Old Street. In the fifth year of Kangxi (1666), he moved to the new city, which is now the urban area of Ning 'an, and was called Ningguta New City. In the early Qing Dynasty, Ningguta was the military, political and economic center located in the north of Shengjing (now Shenyang), which governed the vast areas of Heilongjiang and Wusuli rivers.
