In the pre-Qin period, it belonged to the border between South Vietnam and Fujian.

Introduction to Jieyang City, Guangdong Province

In the 33rd year of Qin Shi Huang (214 BC), after Qin pacified Lingnan, Qin Shi Huang set up three counties of "Guilin, Xiang and Nanhai" in the Lingnan region he seized. Nanhai County consisted of parts of present-day eastern Guangdong, northern Guangdong, central Guangdong, and western Guangdong. Most of present-day Guangdong Province belonged to Nanhai County. Nanhai County administers six counties, including Jieyang. Jieyang County is named after Jieyang Ridge.

In the sixth year (111 BC) of Emperor Yuanding of the Han Dynasty, Jieyang County was established, which governed the areas of present-day Chaoshan and Xingmei and Longxi and Zhangpu in southern Fujian.

In the ninth year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (331 AD), emperor Xianhe of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was divided into Nanhai County, Dongguan County, and Jieyang belonged to it.

In the ninth year of the Reign of Emperor Yixi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (413 AD), it was divided into Dongguan Commandery (東官郡), with the former Jieyang County as Yi'an Commandery (義安郡). It administers five counties: Haiyang (in present-day Jieyang County), Chaoyang, Sui'an, Haining, and Yizhao.

After several restorations, in the tenth year of Shaoxing in the Northern Song Dynasty (1140), Jieyang County was established.

At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, in order to escape the war, more than 100,000 Putian people from Fujian immigrated to Chaozhou and Shantou.

Jieyang in the Ming Dynasty belonged to Chaozhou Province.

Jieyang in the Qing Dynasty belonged to The Chaozhou Capital of Huichao JiaDao.

After the founding of New China, Jieyang County was successively subordinated to Chaoshan Prefecture, Guangdong Administrative Region, Shantou Prefecture and Shantou City.

On July 19, 1965, Jieyang County, Shantou Prefecture, divided 13 communes (towns) in the northwest, and Lufeng County divided 2 communes to establish Jiexi County. Because most of the county is the western part of the former Jieyang County, it is named Jiexi, and the county government is located in Hebo Town, which is subordinate to the Shantou Commissioner's Office.

In 1975, the three brigades of Gongshan, Huxi and Sixiang were separated from Puning County and belonged to Jiexi County, which was under the jurisdiction of Shantou Special District

On December 7, 1991, the State Council (Guo Han [1991] No. 84 Document) approved the abolition of Jieyang County and the establishment of the prefecture-level Jieyang City[9], and Jiexi County was transferred to the jurisdiction of Jieyang City. Of the 15 towns in the former Jieyang County, Jiedong County was established, named Jiedong Because most of the county land was the eastern part of the former Jieyang County, and the county seat was located in quxi subdistrict office, which was under the jurisdiction of Jieyang City.

In December 2012, with the approval of the State Council, Jiedong District of Jieyang City was established, and on March 2, 2013, it was officially put into operation, and the district people's government was stationed in Quxi Street.

Jieyang City now administers Rongcheng District, Jiedong District, Jiexi County, Huilai County, and Puning City (county-level city).

light rail

Introduction to Jieyang City, Guangdong Province

According to the Jieyang City Master Plan (2010-2030), Jieyang will plan and build 4 rail transit lines with Rongcheng as the center.

The suggestions for the direction of the rail transit planning line are mainly grasped at the macro level, and with reference to the content of the "Jieyang City Urban Master Plan", the general direction of the line is basically consistent with the overall urban planning layout. The form of rail transit can be jieyang public transportation development plan using ground or elevated light rail.

With the acceleration of the integration process of the Shanchaojie urban planning area and the rapid development of towns in the region, the connection within the dense urban area will increasingly require large-capacity rapid rail transit. The plan proposes 4 urban rail lines, namely:

1. Line 1: Jieyang Railway Station - Meidong Bridge - Dongxiang - Yuhu New Area Center - Airport - High-speed Rail Station - Shantou / Chaozhou. Connect the current urban center of Jieyang with The Yuhu New Area, the airport, and the high-speed rail station, and connect Shantou and Chaozhou to the east of the high-speed rail station. The length is 34.2 km.

2. Line 2: Jieyang Railway Station - Jiedong County - Fortress - Didu - Shantou University - Shantou City Center. Connect with the current city center, Jiedong County, Shantou City, at Jieyang Railway Station and Fortress Town respectively with Line 1 interchange. The length in Jieyang is 30 kilometers.

3. Line 3: Jieyang Railway Station - Yangmei Yudu - Linpan - Longwei - High-tech Zone. Connect the current urban center with the Lancheng District, and drive the development of the industrial belt in the Lancheng District. The total length is approximately 25 km.

4. Route 4: Dongxiang - Xianqiao - Jieyang College - Hongyang - Puning, is an important support for the Jieyang - Puning urban development corridor, and is considered to extend to Huilai Urban District in the long run. Line 4 connects to Line 1 in Dongxiang. The length is 38.7 km.

In the near and medium term of planning, we can consider the use of rapid transit and other methods as a transition, and build a rail system in the long term depending on the traffic flow situation. The rail transit construction plan in this plan is a conceptual plan, which only gives a macro direction and recommends further special feasibility demonstration as soon as possible.

Marriage

Jieyang's old marriage customs were called "six rites" through six procedures, such as asking for names, naji, nacai, invitation periods, nazheng, and welcoming relatives; in some places, there was the custom of sleeping on the grass mat on the night before the daughter got married, and it is said that this custom originated from the practice of the mother abusing and humiliating the daughter left behind by the predecessor in the past year, so that she slept in such a way, but unexpectedly, the daughter became rich and the children prospered, and since then people have imitated the custom; in addition, there are still customs such as "raising the oil uncle" and "doing four sentences". "Uncle Tiyou" means that on the day of the daughter's marriage, her brother carries five gifts to the man's house, called "Uncle Tiyou", who is the most popular in the groom's family and is generally seated at the chief banquet. "Do four sentences" refers to the various ceremonies of marriage, the female family should hire an old woman like the guest in the drama, sing four sentences of "blessing and praise" to preside, the four sentences are conventional, there are also on-site self-made, most of them rhyme, witty. There is another custom in Jieyi, which is rare in other regions, and men and women who are about to get married, if they are married at home (generally referring to elders), they must be married within 100 days, otherwise they can only perform the marriage ceremony after three years.

These old customs are still passed down in some places, and most areas have been newly arranged and simplified marriages, and even fashions such as group weddings and tourist weddings have gradually become popular.
