Yangjiang, also known as Yangjiang City or Dingcheng, is a prefecture-level city in Guangdong Province, an important birthplace and inheritance place of "Gaoliang Culture" in Lingnan, with a long history and cultural heritage, dating back to the late Paleolithic Period dating back to 10,000 years ago.

The earliest name of Yangjiang in history is Moyang, during the Three Kingdoms period, in the first year of Wu Chiwu (238 AD), Emperor Sun Quan of Wu placed Moyang County under the jurisdiction of Gaoxing County. The name Moyang originated from the Moyang River, because in the pre-Qin period, the Liangyang area was the land of Baiyue, which had not yet belonged to the Central Plains, when it was a cattle and sheep market, there were many cattle and sheep, in the ancient Yue language, "cattle" was "Mo", "sheep" was "Yang", and "Moyang" was the meaning of "cattle and sheep".

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Southern Dynasty Liang Ping's fourth year (523 AD) set up Yangchun County and merged Yangchun County, which was the beginning of the name of Yangchun County. In the eighteenth year of the Sui Kai Emperor (598 AD), Yangjiang County was newly established in today's Yangjiang Land, which is the beginning of the name "Yangjiang". Because there was a river in Moyang at that time, and according to its name, it was named Moyang River, according to the ancient geography of our country, the south of the mountain north and the water was called yin, the north of the mountain south was called Yang, and the Yang River was in the north of the river, so it was named Yang River. In ancient times, "Qing" and "Chun" were called the east, and the Yang River was in the east of the river, so it was named YangChun in ancient times.

Today's Yangjiang City was officially established on January 7, 1988, and this issue of old photos takes everyone into the century-old Yangjiang in black and white images.
