Toponymy
Anji County is named after a verse from the Classic of Poetry.[2]
History
The Shangmakan site, a paleolithic archeological site, is located within present-day Anji County.[2]
Anji County was established in 185 CE.[2]
During the 1990s, it took more than two hours to travel to Hangzhou by bus.[citation needed] Poor transportation isolated Anji from the rest of Zhejiang Province, and for many years its economy remained underdeveloped.[citation needed] From 1997 to 2000, highways were built to Hangzhou and Huzhou, and from 2000 to 2002, highways connecting to National Highway G318 were constructed.[citation needed] The provincial highways within its boundary were also widened.[citation needed] Now the highway system traversing the entire boundary has been completed, and it takes less than three hours to reach Shanghai, Nanjing or Suzhou, and less than one hour to get to Hangzhou and Huzhou.[citation needed]
Geography
Anji County is located within the Yangtze Delta,[4] where the Yangtze meets the East China Sea. The Tianmu Mountains run through southwest portion of the county, with the county's highest point, Longwang Mountain, reaching 1,587.4 metres (5,208 ft) in elevation.[4] Xitiao River, the county's longest river, flows from the southwest mountains northeast, before eventually emptying into Lake Tai.[4]
Anji County is bordered by Changxing County to the north, Wuxing District and Deqing County to the east, Yuhang District and Lin'an District (both in Hangzhou) to the south, and by Ningguo and Guangde to the west (both in Xuancheng, Anhui).[4] The county is located 65 kilometres (40 mi) north of Hangzhou's urban core, and 223 kilometres (139 mi) to the west of Shanghai's.[4]
