Where Does the Word “Hu” Derive From?
Shanghai, one of China’s four municipalities directly under the central government, is located in the east of the rich and beautiful Yangtse Delta, where the surging Yangtse River flows into the East Sea. With an area of 5800 square kilometers, it is one of the world’s biggest port cities and the center of modern science, technology and culture of the country as well.
Shanghai has gone through a long evolution from a coastal fishing village into a great modern city.. By the years of 2000 to 3000 B.C., land had taken shape in the western part of Shanghai and coastal fishing villages had formed at the lower reach of Wu Song River near the sea, where fishermen planted in the rivers a kind of bamboo paling called “Hu 扈” as fishing gear to catch fishes and crabs. The lower reach of Song River (now called Wu Song River) was once named as “Hu Du 扈渎”，then “Hu 扈” evolved into “Hu 沪”, hence Shanghai was called “Hu 沪” for short.
Earthed cultural relics indicate that as early as 5000 to 6000 years ago, human beings began to labor, live and multiply on this land. The earliest residents engaged in fishing, livestock breeding and hunting, then developed their farming, and finally set up their rural community, which extended eastwards as new shoals arose. During the Warring States (475 – 221 B.C.), Shanghai area was reigned by the Kingdom Chu (楚) and it was the feud of Prince Huangxie, who was then called Sir Chun Shen (春申). It was said that Huangxie dredged up Huangpu River, so the river was also named Chun Shen River (春申江). This is why another name for Shanghai is “Chun Shen （春申）” or “Shen （申）” for short. In Tang Dynasty, Shanghai had been a coastal fishing village until the year Tianbao 10th (天宝十年，751年) it was set up as Huating county (华亭县). In the year Xining 7th (熙宁七年,1074年) of the Song Dynasty,. it became Shanghai Town. (上海镇) and from then on both Chinese and foreign merchantmen were sailing to and fro in this area. In 1292, Shanghai was re-established as a county.
In the early 16th century, Shanghai was the most important textile center of the country. In the 17th century, it developed into a big port city in the southeast of China with its flourishing coastal trade and a population of 200 thousand people. In the middle of 19th century, Shanghai presented an unprecedented prosperity, enjoying the fame of “a great port connecting rivers and seas, a metropolitan outstanding in the southeastern China”. After the Opium War, Shanghai became the objective of plunder by the world’s big powers and was soon reduced to “a paradise of adventurers” and “the eastern Paris”, with its deformed development of economy and culture.
Owing to its long history of 6000 years, Shanghai has scores of places of historic interest and parks of different sizes, of which the famous ones are Yu Garden, Jade Temple, Long Hua Park, and Gu Ji Garden. They have made great Shanghai more graceful and charming.
Shanghai is the birthplace of the Chinese Communist Party. The Residence of the Party’s First Congress is visited each year by hundreds of thousands of people. In addition, there are Zhou Enlai’s Residence, Sun Yatxien’s Residence, the Lu Xun Museum, Lu Xun’s Tomb and other revolutionary historic places to be held in respect by visitors. In modern history, Shanghai witnessed the Sword Uprising, May the 30th Movement, the Shanghai Workers’ Three Times’ Armed Struggles and the Songhu Resistance-War Against Japan. These historic events have been recorded as important chapters in the Chinese history.
In China today, Shanghai has become important centers of industry, science, technology and commerce. Its excellent geographical location makes it easy to travel from here to other parts of the country and the world. By liners sailing on the Huangpu River and Wusong River, people can reach various places along the Yangtse Valley. Its huge harbors provide handy transportation to foreign countries. Arterial railways such as Beijing–Shanghai and Shanghai–Hangzhou links the north and the south of the nation. With a thick highway net, travelers can go to nearly every city of the country. Over 40 air liners take passengers to big cities at home and abroad. Shanghai has developed an advanced national and international communication and one-third of international communication is transmitted via Shanghai Satellite Communication Ground Station and the Sino-Japanese Submarine Cable.
In April of 1986, Shanghai was announced by the State Council as one of the famous historic cities of the country.
