Yunlong District (simplified Chinese: 云龙区; traditional Chinese: 雲龍區; pinyin: Yúnlóng Qū; lit. 'cloud dragon') is one of six districts of Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, China.

History

[edit]

At the beginning of the Republic of China, the government abolished Xuzhou Prefecture and attached it to Guo Tongshan County. Later, Xu Haidao was established with its seat in Tongshan (modern Xuzhou). The Japanese pseudo by Tongshan County analyzed Xuzhou City, which was the capital of the pseudo-Huaihai Province. Yunlong District was founded in 1938, then known as the third district of Xuzhou City. After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1952, the third district of Xuzhou was renamed Yunlong District. In 1968, Yunlong District was renamed Hongwei District, and in 1975, it reverted to being called Yunlong District again.[1]
