The origin of the name of Dongfanghong Village

Dongfanghong Village is a part of the former Dongguan Village. Dongguan Village has a long history, which can only be seen from the mining, smelting and casting of Laiwu. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a record that "the Han Dynasty set up an iron official, and the drum casting never stopped". At that time, it was already known as the "official temple smelting". In addition, according to Wang Tianting's "Xuan Sheng Chao Bei" quoted in the twenty-four years from the Yuan Dynasty to the Republic of China, "the county administration has been abolished for a long time, only ten courtyards have been restored, and the home ownership official temples have all been created", which shows that the village was built before the Song Dynasty. From the Northern Song Dynasty to the early years of Taoism, "Laiwu Supervisor" was in charge of "Three Pits" and "Eighteen Treatments", among which Lubeiye, one of the eighteen treatments, was in today's Dongfanghong neighborhood committee. According to the records of Jiajing Laiwu County in Ming Dynasty, the east gate of Laiwu County is Tongqi Gate, so it is called Tongqi Lane. Because it is the gateway outside the east gate of Laicheng, it is also called Dongguan. 1962 Dongguan Brigade is divided into three parts, one of which is Yingxianmen Brigade. 1966, Yingxianmen Brigade was renamed Dongfanghong.
