The development of history

The name of Ma 'anshan comes from history. According to legend, during the Chu-Han War, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, was besieged and besieged on all sides. He retreated to the Wujiang River in the county seat and let the fisherman cross his beloved horse to the other side. Later, he felt ashamed to see his elders in Jiangdong and committed suicide. Wu Zhui lost his hand, rolled and killed himself, and the saddle fell to the ground and turned into a mountain, hence the name Maanshan.

Some people say that they got the name of this place because of the mountains with saddle-shaped terrain. Among the existing local historical materials in Ma 'anshan, the earliest record of Ma 'anshan's name is the Ming Dynasty's Records of Taiping Prefecture and Jade Emperor: Ma 'anshan is in Cihu Port, northwest of Fucheng. The old temple was built in Chiwu two years ago.
