Welcome to the open and beautiful city-Hefei!Welcome to AnhuiBrief: Anhui Province is located in eastern China across the basins of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River.It borders Jiangsu to the east, Zhejiang to the southeast, Jiangxi to the south, Hubei to the southwest, Henan to the northwest, and Shandong for a tiny section in the north. Origin of the province name: Anhui Province was founded in 1667 and has a proud history of over 300 years. Early in the Qing Dynasty a huge province, named Jiangnan Province, was founded. It included what are now Anhui Province, Jiangsu Province and Shanghai City.During the Qing Dynasty, in the sixth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi (A.D.1667), Jiangnan Province was divided into two provinces: Anhui and Jiangsu. The name ?Anhui? comes from the first Chinese characters of two prefectures, Anqing and Huizhou. In the year when Anhui was established, Anqing was the political center of the province and Huizhou was the economic center.The province abbreviation is ?Wan?, because there were historically a State of Wan, a Mount Wan, and a Wan River in the provinceMount Wan, now the Tianzhu MountainGeography: Anhui Province is about 570 km from south to north and 450 km from east to west. It covers an area of 139.6 thousand square kilometers, about 1.45 percent of the total area of the country.There are various landforms in Anhui. The Yangtze River and Huaihe River flow through the province and divide the whole province into three main natural area to the Huaihe River, the area between the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River and the south area to the Yangtze River. Some major mountains, such as Dabie Mountain, Yellow Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain and Tianzhu Mountain lie in Anhui, and the highest peak of Yellow Mountain-Lotus Peak is 1,860 meters above sea level.

Bridge over the Yangtze River in Tongling CityHistory: Anhui is one of the most important cradles of Chinas pre-historical civilization. It has been discovered that even 2.5 million years ago, human beings already inhabited the site in the Inverted V Cave(the shape of the Chinese character of ?man?) in Fanchang County.The Hexian Countys Sinanthropus Site of the Paleolithic Age (300,000 or 400,000 years ago) was excavated in the Dragon Pool Cave of Hexian County. These excavations have demonstrated that many generationsof people have lived in this area since remote antiquity. During the Neolithic Age (between 4,000 and 10,000 years ago), Anhui belonged to the cultural domains of Yangshao, Longshan, Qingnianand Veined Chinaware. The Xuejiagang Site, excavated in Qianshan County, has a long history of about 5,000 to 6,000 years. This ancient cultural site, revealing mostly Neolithic relics, is of great importance in the research of the primitive culture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Yu, the historical reputed founder of the Xia Dynasty, had a close relation with Anhui. According to the historical records, Yu met with local lords at Tushan and all the lords paid tributes to him.Tushan is the ancient Dangtu County in today?s Horsehead Town,southeast of Huaiyuan County in Anhui. Bozhou was once the capital of the Chengtang State in the Shang Dynasty (between 1,600 to 1,100 B.C), while the ancient Shouchun (today?s Shouxian County)was the capital of the late Chu State in the Warring States Period(475-221 B.C). The ancient copper tripod caldron excavated from the tombs of the Chu Dynasty is just little lighter than Simuwu Rectangle Ding, a bronze cooking vessel with two loop handles and four legs, of the Shang Dynasty. In the Qin Dynasty, according to the administrative division at that time, the area north to the Huai River belonged to Tang Prefecture and Sishui Prefecture, the area between the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River belonged to Jiujiang Prefecture, and the area south to the Yangtze River belonged to Zhang Prefecture.During the East Han and West Han dynasties, Anhui belonged to Yang, Yu, and Xu prefectures.
