Most ancient cities in China were built on the north bank of the water, and the south side of the water was cloudy. To the north of the water is the sun, so there are many "Yangcheng" cities in China. Among them, for example, Luoyang, one of the eight ancient capitals of China, is located in the north of Luoshui, hence the name Luoyang; Yiyang city, Hunan province, has gained water because of the great river flowing through Yiyang, which is beneficial to water in ancient times.

The market is in the direction of Jiangbei, so it is called Yiyang. Mianyang City, Sichuan Province is named "Mianyang" because its city site is located in Mian Shan Zhinan. Guiyang, the capital of Guizhou Province, is called Guiyang because there is a nearby mountain called Guishan, which is on the sunny side of the mountain. These are basically in line with the naming method that the south of the mountain is the sun in the north.
