Xiqing District (simplified Chinese: 西青区; traditional Chinese: 西青區; pinyin: Xīqīng Qū) is a district in Tianjin, People's Republic of China.
History
The current Xiqing area came into existence in the mid and late Tang dynasty. In Northern Song (Song dynasty) period, this area was the border of Song and Liao (Liao dynasty). In Ming dynasty, this area was under control of Jinghai County and Wuqing County, Hejian Fu. In Qing dynasty, it was governed by Tianjin Fu. In 1912, after the founding of Republic of China, this area was named Tianjin County, Zhili Province.
After 1949, it became a special area of Hebei province and Yangliuqing became its center of governance. In 1952, this area became part of Tianjin Municipality. In 1953, it got its name Xijiaoqu (West Suburb). In 1992, it was named Xiqing District.
